From the standpoint of those defending the castle from huge hordes of
exploiters and looters, it's more like "Don't reveal details, like the exact
location of all observation posts, the nature of your defenses and the
strength of your force, to anybody not part of your efforts".

A particular spammer invested a good deal of effort in reverse-engineering the
things we had done to make sure that yesterday's onslaught was stopped at the
earliest possible moment.  We declined to cut his costs by letting him know
how his electronic used food was identified and properly disposed of.

If you are not a spammer, but see problems getting delivery, you might aim
your guns at the appropriate target (broadcasters of unsolicited email) rather
than the easy target (those who labour imperfectly to keep the 94% Scheißdreck
out of people's inboxes).
