[open-government] Examples of Open Data against conflicts of interests?

Wed Dec 7 12:09:17 UTC 2011

Some days ago I have gathered some examples (in a list) initiated by the Sunlights (http://globaler-wandel.blogspot.com/2011/11/neue-studie-der-sunlight-foundation-zur.html)

Hi there Marco,

There are several proyects in the Sunlight Foundation around lobbying
activities. Also in Latin America www.inspectordeintereses.cl is an
example of using public information with those purposes. Note that I
am unsure if it is all open data, (in the very technical sense) but
for sure is public information
Cheers
Fabrizio
