They now do this which can mean a rank above Q access most think that Q is a like rank it is not exactly a rank it is an access some ranks higher and a few lower may very on having this access. Every member on Q team or board has higher access then this maybe a play on 18 saying they are this it is possible that other are or have other higher access then Q. The board itself has the ability to deny or give access in areas that are not crossing or crossing if they see it is needed. The board generally can see what crosses but this is not always the case. This is where this person if the rank of 18 is using this like a badge or identity factor this should be scanned to see if they are throwing around their level of access to then demand info that they may not have the authority to demand. It is a thing about staying with in your lane if what applies to things you are working in and then believing the board that makes the choice saying it has no value to you or your operation what you have requests. This is exactly what is going on. You may have people that are operators so on aka seal team ranger which are both special forces in a way of thing. This is where they do not need to always have access to other things that their level days they can as long as it directly applies to them. This is where the miss conception of one access gains the all access. This is then even applied to higher level access. The Q board generally has a higher level access that is or applies in almost all cases to everything as you go up the chain only really Secretary of State may have like higher in a way to access things like VP level then the highest is the President himself which can state that no one is to know but who knows now and him making determination to keep or not keep others in some know in the loop or not. This is the miss conception about these access or clearance they do not all work like this one access all on these levels. You can apply but in most instances unless it applies then you will be denied the rule of less people see know less leaks.
This maybe done due to info that may not seem valuable to some maybe valuable to foreign actors or other groups that are nefarious of nature such as military group movements… tools machines in the area and capabilities that go either them.
This seems like just a list of things in the area but it could tell a government the exact strength of the force they face or some group that paid off someone for the information.
This is why even this information unless somehow needed or wanted in a valuable man which is understandable to the board is denied.
This is the main function of the board or one of the to distribute info for orders that are then handed down.
I would recommend the high command do a better job at testing or knowing that people understand this and what comes with the clearance. They seem to be having issues that are well costing absorbent amount of resources time money to then make people happy or appease them. This is then allowing people to torture people, sexually abuse them, abuse them, run operation mk ultra known methods, and generally take the liability though the roof by doing this now.
This after my case is this is handled likely will bring about the end of things in ways ie a change in some manner of speak a limiting of it maybe to substantially less. As this seems to be used in a swating manner by the other side and then which does it the other way to bait people with clearances to challenge in military or positions of authority.
