Is that kind of secrecy useful in any way? No. It, instead serves to cover up abuses and oversights. Transparency, especially in government is essential. People should have privacy as their right, but the government should not.
- darawk 7y agoYa, I agree. Just trying to come up with the strongest possible counter-argument. Which may be that the FDA depends on some level of secrecy in order to prevent drug companies from overly tailoring their trials to their internal criteria. To be clear, I don't find that argument convincing, it's just the best one I could think of.
