I understand the difference.

If we required politicians to stream their lives 24/7, then the unintended consequence would be a government run exclusively by Instagram influencers who already stream their lives 24/7. I get your point about sunlight on secrets. But limiting our governance to the pool of people I see on TikTok seems like a high price to pay.

(This is just a 2023 rephrasing of the age-old concern of electing someone willing to be a politician.)
