I’m quite sure the Wired people “get it.” This is a typical OTT knee-jerk reaction by the government. Not including any sort of operational details in open source communications is common sense. No dates, times, locations etc etc.

Terrorists can and will use all forms of media/com. They could pass messages through the comments section of pajamasmedia. Shall we close down pajamasmedia?

Sorry, but that’s just the price you pay for living in a free and open society. It’s a risk that we will just have to deal with. Do you think the Soviets didn’t use The Washington Post to pass info?

Of course we could turn everything in 1984, but then we’d be doing the terrorists work for them. No thanks.
