Finally, we have a use case that we could put to the acid test, methodologically, politically, from the data-driven perspective, ethically, financially and many more.

Controversies are probably the most exciting crossroads! The case also illustrates that forbidden knowledge and secret knowledge are not the same thing. While secret knowledge is secret, forbidden knowledge can also be public knowledge/data.
