It is, however, undeniably true, that actually keeping secrets in a
large group is very, very difficult -- especially if those secrets
have any value (such as a competitive strategy that depends on
surprise). Thus, trying to hatch a secret plot among 200 online
users isn't just a bad idea -- it's basically stupid.
We all know that our actual competitors have essentially full access
to both the PAB list and the CORE list.
Yes, let's plot a super strategy that *depends* on the element of
surprise... now that would *really* be giving our competitors an
advantage.
