Jeezus. Well it isn't like it's unexpected. And you couldn't expect a journalist to blame his own professions as in: "Journalists leaking information about in progress investigations compromise our ability to gather passive information. When the news was broken last month about the US intercepting messages cell phone messages from a cell phone Bin Laden using, you can pretty much be he stopped using that phone" - don't remember when I heard that today, but it's the gist of the message.

Terrorism can't be stopped by passive data collection, regardless of how good it is, encryption is just a crutch. A well organized cell structure allows well planned terrorism without two-way messaging.
