I don't have much to add here, I think we've reached the point where nuance is necessary, and "it depends" comes into play. This Abbot / Elon _seems like_ an abuse of confidentiality for competitive reasons, which itself can bring a bunch of other problems (like insider trading). But overall of course there are reasons for secrecy, and probably mechanisms to minimize that, like does the government REALLY needs to know details that would compromise competitiveness to make decisions? But we would go back to "it depends". Anyway that's a lot for simplistic HN threads, and I enjoyed your replies.
