Carlos and Privacy

Nov 02, 2006 06:37 PM

I have no problems at all with the concept of privacy....or private or
even secret organizations. If people wish to associate for secret, lawful
purposes I am not bothered at all. But their wish for secrecy imposes no
obligations on me!

Carlos is apparently quite happy for anything about the ER to be published
(regardless of the wishes of its members), but not for equivalent material
to appear about the DES.

The DES (assuming it exists) may not want me or anyone else mentioning it,
let alone publishing its materials.

However, Carlos, you can't have it both ways. You complain that people
(like me) make statements without providing evidence. I then suggest how
evidence might be obtained, and you claim this would violate the privacy
of the organizations concerned!
So - you either accept that scholars and other commentators who are denied
access to sources or information about organizations will be left to
engage in speculation without evidence, or you provide information and
give access to sources.

I assume, by the way, that the companies owning ULT property are not
secret organizations, but corporations subject to law.
