Yes, but slightly different to the national security option. Only if the information released doesn't harm our national security in a sense that for example it won't reveal classified strategic documents or reveal names of covert-operatives. They should be protected if the information released reveals actions by the government not in the public interest or if it is a violation of Commonwealth or international law.

Yes, whistleblowers are there to protect democracy and provide the public with necessary information.

Yes, and free whistleblowers currently in prison, drop current cases against whistleblowers and strike all whistleblower charges from all criminal records.
