I wouldn't want my government to release the names of state employees, corrupt or not, to the people - especially if those people can become the target of mob justice.
Of course, they should still be brought to trail or whatever when they are corrupt, but if that doesn't happen, then that is the problem - not that they're not being exposed to public rule.

- Vinnl 8y agoCorrect; if the state can no longer democratically be controlled by citizens, revolution is the only option. However, when the state is protecting bad actors, one should not call for the law to be adjusted to allow for mob justice, but for a functioning judiciary branch.
