Senate report: Interrogation methods 'far worse' than CIA acknowledged

Not surprising at all. It seems like when we hear about a misconduct scandal in the military or intelligence apparatus the truth is often worse than initially thought. Abu Ghraib was worse than we thought, all of the dirty stuff the NSA is doing is worse than we thought, and now confirmation that the CIA's interrogation program was worse than initially thought.

I hope this wakes people up to gow big of a threat unaccountable intelligence agencies are. Even in the face of clear evidence that these guys deliberately deceived those who oversee them, I doubt anyone is going to be punished over this. If there are no repercussions, there's absolutely nothing to stop even more egregious abuses of power in the future (or potentially happening even now).

Then there's the fact that the CIA penetrated Congressional staffer computers to try to find some of the evidence against them.
