The consequences would be devastating. Noone who would reach out to Journalists to uncover corruption, severe economic crime and other cases with government involvement, would be safe to do so.
This would seriously harm democracy and incentivise relentless abuse of power and crime from and through governmental institutions.
I just saw yesterday, that in austria the anti corruption agency has charged a journalist because he reported on the wages of gov. officials or something like that. Unseen so far and actually dangerous.
