Of course, transparency is unsettling – whether it’s seeing your own wrinkles in the mirror, or confirming unpleasant aspects of how others treat you. Transparency is unambiguously good for companies and for governments; by and large they don’t welcome it, but it makes them more accountable to their constituents and to society.
当然，清晰透明的状态是令人感到不安的——不管是对着镜子里查看自己的皱纹，还是看到别人与你沟通中的那些不利的方面。毫无疑问，对企业和政府来说透明是有益的；虽然总的来说他们不太欢迎这一点，但这能令他们对选民或者社区更加负责。
