The heuristic is that it would be in their interest to trumpet their successes.
- conception 10mo agoNot if revealing success also reveals methodology and “trade” secrets.
- michaelmrose 10mo agoIts perfectly reasonable to suppose undisclosed successes are imaginary as that is the overwhelming likelihood
- colordrops 10mo agoWhat could these secrets be other than a completely illegal comprehensive web of domestic spy apparatus.
- Pixelbrick 10mo agoIsn't that what parallel construction is for?
- conception 10mo ago“We have a mole in X network that gave us details about the attack.” Would be the most obvious.
- wat10000 10mo agoThe heuristic is that DoD doesn’t do counterterrorism. I don’t expect DoD to prevent terror attacks just like I don’t expect the FBI to blow up bunkers in Iran. We don’t need numbers to be able to confidently estimate that the number of Iranian bunkers blown up by the FBI is approximately zero.
