Lawrence Lessig, one of Obama’s many special tech advisors, on government transparency. If the people see what govt is really like, it will simply drive support for govt even lower. Is that reason enough to not have transparency?http://www.tnr.com/article/books-and-arts/against-transparency?page=0,0“How could anyone be against transparency? Its virtues and its utilities seem so crushingly obvious. But I have increasingly come to worry that there is an error at the core of this unquestioned goodness. We are not thinking critically enough about where and when transparency works, and where and when it may lead to confusion, or to worse. And I fear that the inevitable success of this movement–if pursued alone, without any sensitivity to the full complexity of the idea of perfect openness–will inspire not reform, but disgust. The “naked transparency movement,” as I will call it here, is not going to inspire change. It will simply push any faith in our political system over the cliff.”- Lwrence Lessig
