Thomas Andrews Drake is a former senior executive of the National Security Agency (NSA) who also served in the United States Air Force and United States Navy. He gained attention as a whistleblower challenging the Trailblazer Project, leading to an Espionage Act case against him. Despite facing allegations of mishandling documents, the original charges were dropped in 2011. Drake’s commitment to truth-telling was recognized through awards like the Ridenhour Prize. He stood firm in his principles, refusing to accept plea deals and instead pleading to a misdemeanor for exceeding authorized computer use as an act of civil disobedience.
