Rédigez un paragraphe argumentatif (150 mots) sur la question : Should whistleblowers be legally protected, even when they leak classified information? Utilisez la structure concession-dépassement.

Corrigé

Exemple : Admittedly, whistleblowers who leak classified information may expose sensitive operations and endanger lives — this is a serious concern for national security services. However, without whistleblowers, citizens would have had no way of knowing about the mass surveillance revealed by Snowden in 2013, the diplomatic manipulations exposed by Manning in 2010, or the internal workings of Facebook disclosed by Haugen in 2021. Moreover, existing internal channels for reporting abuse have repeatedly proved insufficient. A functioning democracy therefore requires strong legal protection for whistleblowers who act in good faith and in the public interest, combined with proportionate safeguards against reckless disclosure. Arguably, the current landscape — Manning imprisoned then pardoned, Snowden exiled, Assange detained for years — sends the wrong message to future potential whistleblowers, discouraging exactly the transparency that democracies claim to defend.
