For every protocol, project, company and institution, I want to ask the same questions.

Does it provide a real human benefit?

Does it work well enough to deliver that benefit?

Does it increase informed human agency?

Does it protect privacy and require meaningful consent?

Is it open to inspection, participation and adaptation?

Does it distribute power or merely relocate it?

Do the people creating value receive a fair share?

Are decisions, funding relationships, conflicts and failures visible?

Can people leave without losing their money, identity, data, audience or relationships?

Are workers, creators, educators, designers and moderators respected and compensated?

Are environmental costs measured honestly?

Does the system protect civil liberties and reduce coercion?

These #questions are not designed to reveal whether someone is a good person.

They are designed to reveal how a system behaves.

#FOIA #questions worth asking

If you wanted to investigate this systematically, interesting FOIA or public records questions could include:

• How many NSAID prescriptions were issued by branch and year?

• What were the prescribing guidelines for musculoskeletal injuries?

• When were MRI or orthopedic referrals recommended?

• How did prescribing vary by installation?

• Were there internal reviews of delayed diagnoses?

• What training did military providers receive on chronic NSAID use?

• How did injury outcomes compare before and after guideline changes?

Those questions are aimed at understanding policy and practice, not assuming misconduct.
