Re: naked transparency

Sorry but these two links provide some great debates about naked transparency:

On connecting the dots – a response to Lessig on transparency


and these bits

The conversation about Lessig’s “Against Transparency” article is proving to be a lively one. New Republic has published four responses – pushbacks from David Weinberger, which I read in draft and which helped shape my thinking, and from Sunlight’s founders. The other two are from Jeffrey Rosen, who sees a role for the courts in mediating between secrecy and disclosure, and Tim Wu, who argues that the system’s too screwed up for transparency to help, and that the key is better leadership. Good, provocative stuff. Hope that Lessig will address some of Ellen, Michael and David’s pushbacks at some point soon.

from 5. What I’m not writing about.
