We need more scientists, not more lawyers. This article suggests that both the man who took the pictures and the agencies involved acted dishonestly and with the intent to subvert one mission in support of another. Even if one agrees with the goals here (eg protecting 'uncontacted' tribes from contact), pursuing those goals through disingenuous means is detrimental to everyone (tribesmen, researchers, taxpayers).
