Please. I try to use my sarcasm professionally!
People understand that freedom of speech does not mean that someone has the right to falsely shout 'fire' in a crowded cinema, but people also understand that calling an organisation transparent, when it is in fact semi-transparent, is misleading.
It's only misleading if one chooses to understand "transparency" in the naive way that some might choose to understand "freedom of speech."
