mmmary-- there are many levels of information. Many levels of 'public knowledge/record" and "classified". Anything that you find on record or can get with a FOIA request is usually under 'public knowlege"

Over the past years I've talked with one FBI guy and a number of SEC agents. They never told me anything at all. Just asked questions and thanked me for my information. One used to apologize for being unable to comment. Also, I've spoken to FBI guys and they're shared information with me that I've even posted on the boards. I've had others tell me what FBI agents have told them. If this is illegal, why'd did they tell me this information and why didn't they tell me it was illegal for them to do so. I believed they were sharing information with me so I could help them with their cases. Same with SEC agents. They also never told me not to share the info or make it public. But indeed, if they did give you information, then you're not to blame for that, and if they didn't tell you not to make it public, there's no reason for you not to do so. But you're missing the point: evidently Elgindy PAID for his information from the FBI, and that's an entirely different matter.
