**TLP:UNCLEAR** label originally emerged in the anarcho-undo-clear-labellers fraction (“patient 0”). It was created in resistance to the renaming of **TLP:WHITE** to TLP:CLEAR. For this group the only logical _undo_ function to the controversial TLP:CLEAR tag was to introduce TLP:UN-CLEAR[^2].

* TLP:UNCLEAR helps with the introduction of more statistical methods such as “AI” and Deep Learning into the field of Cybersecurity. Without TLP:UNCLEAR, statistical statements on IoCs would not be possible (“is this IP address a C&C server or not?” -> TLP:UNCLEAR) * TLP:UNCLEAR helps with the introduction of more statistical methods such as “AI” and Deep Learning into the field of Cybersecurity.

* TLP:UNCLEAR becomes extremely practical when trying to describe the confusion of different levels of TLP:AMBER. Whenever there are uncertainties between TLP:AMBER, TLP:AMBER-strict, TLP:YELLOW (or what’s the difference to amber? Is it traffic lights or not or what?), TLP:you-can’t-tell-your-spouse-but-everyone-else, TLP:share-with-your-customers-but-not-your-boss, then, TLP:UNCLEAR can easily come to the rescue: by confusing the hell out of the recipient of an TLP:UNCLEAR message into a petrified state, no action will be taken on TLP:UNCLEAR messages, which is after all the intended outcome. * TLP:UNCLEAR becomes extremely practical when trying to describe the confusion of different levels of TLP:AMBER.
