> Such honey-pots would no doubt catch false-positives but it is a known effective means of reconnaissance and sabotage, considering how aggressively and thoroughly they are connected to social media.

'The government has been running a secret program to entrap people!' > Where are our NSA pundits? Are they too busy with economic espionage against their patrons' opponents? NSA's job is not economic espionage, and NSA does not often take public stances. It does its job quietly; if it has ideas for how it could contribute to the fight against ISIL, then it would probably not bandy them about the media.
