Obscurity won't stop terrorists, so we might as well map them. It will
make it easier for law enforcement to find them, too.
As an aside, the last couple of months I noticed somebody in
Turkmenistan had added a number of "banks" and "bars" in Ashgabat, using
MAPS.ME, with very strange, un-banklike, un-barlike names. Upon
investigation I found they were electrical substations. Since MAPS.ME
has no "substation" node preset, this mapper (possibly and in fact most
probably an employee of Turkmen Energo) was mapping substations and
annotating them on his smartphone as "banks" or "bars". I had a merry
afternoon of cleanup in December and another this month.
cheers,
