To me this reads a clear message:

Security through obscurity doesn't work.

As soon as someone who knows what they're doing comes along, you're in trouble.



I would hope that this message was already crystal clear.

Security through obscurity isn't a replacement for other strategies. That doesn't mean that it's useless; just that if people are relying solely on it, then you can pretty much bet that they're screwed.
