I think the point about security is not to make it too easy for the other guys. Sure the Russians could have a guy sat near Leuchars, reporting in, or near FC bases or spy sats - but all that is surprisingly difficult and expensive. Compare it to surfing the internet back home. Easy and cheap (free!)
Just think about what you post. I think most people post about stuff they have no idea what they are talking about - those that do know keep quiet!
