Secret organisations with hidden agendas are at a disadvantage. They have to reduce internal communication because secrets leak. However this cripples them. In the long term they can't compete against transparent and beneficial organisations. This leads to a better world.
This is brilliant. Mr Assange is worth a Peace Nobel prize.
It makes me think of this fascinating article [1]:
«The problem, Seetah said, was that these protests led to a situation where butchers were afraid to let the public see how animals are killed. So they stopped bull-baiting, but a new lack of transparency descended on the meat industry. And that led directly to the hidden abattoir system, which ultimately led to more abuse. So there's a kind of vicious circle, where humanity's ethical concerns about butchery can actually backfire and drive the practice of meat production out of public view.»
and I'm concerned that Wikileaks in its striving for stature is going to end up subverting political system by trying to play games to force them to be better — though of course what I would like to see is a completely transparent form of government.
