Why do I feel like we've been probed?

OH?? Colonoscopy so soon?

NO, I really want to do more, but I didnt think about the OPSEC concerns before I began the test, and recieved enough "be carefuls" that I decided in the sake of safety to stop.

The next scenario was really cool too...

Watch your email, be really careful, even if your are not using a free email account, one you paid for, it is most likely encrypted. But, seeing to never stop until death of the newer generation of terrorists, and all the other not friendly guys out there, they can probe the encryption until it snaps. Amazing some folks around my area just held a conference on online stalking and privacy theft. I was shocked on how easy in the test scenario (a school student) they did, on how quick it took them from just a number, to a full name, address, and even where they went to school , and even what classrooms , on what specific day. All this took about 15 minutes.

So, I do not recommend it, even if you think you are a head of the privacy violations threat, when it comes to OPSEC I would not take any chances.

Sorry, did not mean to disgrace you, or anyone else, just trying to give everyone a heads up.

Hmmm... well I suppose we could do it in PMs... I can also add a OPSEC warning too...

What do you think? Yea or nay?

Sukio, perhaps my answer to all his questions and scenarios will be a full frontal charge with twice as many men as rifles.
Spartacus, hmmmmm... we should discuss this. It's fun no doubt. But maybe scenarios thrown at us should be more extreme, limited in resources and basically scenarios in which the french fries hit the fan.

The only possible OPSEC violation I can foresee in any of this would be if the responder were to reply with special knowledge. I don't think there are any prior service or active duty members on here that stupid. These are hypothetical situations... just like a video game. Anyone see this differently? Particularly interested in what our Mods say on the subject.

True... if this is OPSEC violation, so is every military video game out there.
Helicopter goes up... OPSEC!!!!!!!!
Rifleman carries a rifle... OPSEC!!!!!!!
