passive concealment

Read a random definition: Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review

A quick definition of passive concealment:

Passive concealment means not telling someone something important when you should. It's like keeping a secret that could cause problems if it was known. It's different from active concealment, which is when you purposely hide something from someone. Passive concealment is when you don't say anything even though you know you should. It can be a type of fraud if it involves insurance or other legal matters.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Passive concealment is the act of remaining silent or refraining from disclosing information when one has a duty to speak or reveal the information. It is a type of concealment that involves not taking action rather than actively hiding or suppressing information.

Examples:

  • A doctor who fails to disclose a patient's medical condition to the patient or their family is engaging in passive concealment.
  • An employee who knows about a safety hazard in the workplace but does not report it to their supervisor is also engaging in passive concealment.

These examples illustrate how passive concealment involves not taking action when there is a duty to speak or reveal information. In both cases, the individuals have a responsibility to disclose important information that could affect the well-being of others, but they choose to remain silent instead.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs
