So, the idea that "obscurity is not security" is not exclusive to security professionals. It is the justification that investigative journalists use on a daily basis in pursuing and publishing their stories. Next time you read an exposé of a government function, consider that the government at some point pressured the journalist to back off for "the sake of national security|the children"...assuming that the journalist isn't a total sociopath, we can give some benefit of the doubt and assume the reporter believes it's more important to expose government incompetence completely so that there's no turning back. That is almost certainly what the NYPost thought here...images draw attention. They also cost money to print, especially in full color on the inside pages. This wasn't an accident and the author of the critique shows his utter ignorance of civic institutions and bureaucracy.
