There are security risks involved in posting a list for Privateers. It's a great idea but it would have to be implemented in a way without allowing the adversary to know what you intend to do.
Also, posting a public list of IPs to bring down or info to steal is like publicly declaring war. From what I've heard, China is hacking US gov/mil systems all the time but this is only being reported by the US. As far as I know China has never publicly declared that they are actively hacking US systems. Plausible denibility!
If somehow AFCC could gather a list of Privateers, and grant security clearances then we could really go to town because the information about the sexy operations could be contained and if need be denied.
