I like this article although I don't see any good news as far the "new transparency". There are several theoretical arguments that might be raised which drawn on both Debord's Society of the Spetacle (1967) and on Foucault's Displine and Punish (and also History of Sexuality). Moreover, there is a well known network of international scholars who has been analysing the so called surveillance society.
Surveillance is the very word that is missed here. Because it's routine surveillance that has fostered transparency and the lack of resistance is something we should think about.
Another key word is visibility. But that's another story.
