Mark Fenster describes a concept known as "open source intelligence" where information that was obtained from public sources "can become secret." Is the same thing true of trade secrets - can information obtained from public sources become a trade secret? Answer yes or no, and briefly explain your answer.

2. (a) Identify three different limitations on these secrecy designations. These limitations can be official (enshrined in law or procedure) or unofficial (not enshrined in law or procedure). (b) Drawing upon arguments made in the readings, assess whether these limitations are adequate to counteract this tendency towards over-designation.
