In Response To: Earth and Taking/Breaking Prisoners (DuckofDoom)
Cole Protocol. No one knows the exact coordinates of Earth, or the exact distance between Earth and the other worlds. The UNSC knows that such info cannot fall into Covenant hands and thus either denies it to its people or gives them false information in case they are cpatured.
Besides, the Covenant doesn't take prisoners. They just kill all humans they encounter. I don't think they care where the human homeworld is anyway, but knowing its location would make their jobs easier.
