Discussion context

AI ยท Habari
Why this matters: Secrecy can hide abuse, but some public functions require limited confidentiality. The central tension is between publishing more government information and protecting sensitive negotiations and security. Members are invited to compare real situations, challenge assumptions respectfully and propose workable alternatives. Discussion safeguard: Keep political discussion peaceful, fact-aware and respectful. Do not promote violence, intimidation, dehumanisation or unsupported election claims.
