Editing DGF transcendent values (section)

=== Knowledge values example ===
Our values concerning the control of information in a DAO breaks along the lines of individual privacy and group (bureaucratic) transparency. As a practical instantiation of these values, consider the case of a [[Judicial governance|judicial action]].

When a dispute arises and judicial action occurs, the group is in charge of the outcome, ultimately. Therefore since we value group transparency and individual privacy, the design of the protocols for judicial actions should reflect those values. 

Typically, the behavior and statements of the groups should be transparently reported, while the privacy of individuals should be protected. For instance, the information of the proceedings of an [[Arbitration DAO|arbitration case]] should be in the custody of the individual unless they are found guilty—and even when they are found guilty, the group should generally err on the side of protecting the individual’s information. (Unless, e.g., the case is between two individuals.) Therefore, the individual should be able to determine whether or not the information from the proceedings is published if they are found innocent. In that case, the individual may publish information about the behavior of the court during the case, but the group should not be allowed to publish the personal knowledge they gained about the innocent individual.
