How often to spy pictures get declassified? The article kinda hints that they just kinda stay classified until someone gets bored and decides to kill time by declassifying stuff; but if so, this is a good example of why stuff should get declassified on a regular basis. Like, if you’re worried about revealing agents or info that’s still relevant, then redact that, but how many other interesting things have been spotted by spy satellites but will remain hidden for another 40+ years?
