I’ll point out that weather is one of the things I mention as a sensitive indicator that should be protected (in my 2012 OPSEC talk.)

In related OPSEC news Signal has a new president. This role is recently created and I guess there is an interesting back story about why the organisation is doing this. I however, do not know it.

Congratulations to the new President, Meredith Whittaker [Wikipedia]. A commenter on HN said:
