  Taking great care to avoid revealing your capabilities has been integral to spycraft for a long time.

      This is a term everyone should know. It’s not just to protect technology. It’s used to launder what would otherwise be unconstitutional spying. This is effectively what we’re learning the government does through its FVEY[1] “partnerships”. Can’t spy on a US citizen? Have our neighbor do it and pass it back to us! 1. https://theintercept.com/2018/03/01/nsa-global-surveillance-sigint-seniors/ https://theintercept.com/2018/03/01/nsa-global-surveillance-...
