Where's the optimal boundary between transparency and privacy? To coordinate against threats or e.g. the formation of 19th century style political machines etc. privacy is essential, but we also want transparency. At first glance, larger actors must be transparent and smaller ones should have privacy but where do you draw the line? Is there perchance a liminal space of people with or without both somehow?

People with no power get to have privacy. People with power are forced to have transparency. The more power you have, the more transparent you have to be. It's not a line, it's a gradient.

Sounds good. How do we define or measure power?

Control over money is a pretty good start I think. As well as civil and political roles all the way up the power ladder.

Good beginning but what's control over money? Where do you want to draw your line in the sand?

If you have to explain, you've already lost the battle.

I thought the whole point was to influence people
