Good advice, you never know who is following you.
That aside, there is a culture of unnecessary secrecy and always has been in the services. At times it breeds a silo culture within the military which decreases efficiency. Outside the services it breeds paranoia and destroys trust in those who should be protecting us but can end up being seen as protecting their own interests. It's just too easy and requires no thought to play the 'need to know' card.
Don't tell him your name Pike. 😂
