SR-1563B New tools for making corporate and political corruption visible, as well as ones for following data trails across various shadow entities, will increase transparency through “name and shame” methods. Perhaps more importantly, the distributed capabilities of the Internet make it possible for groups of people to point out corrupt behaviors while maintaining individual anonymity. Backlash against these practices, however, will include intolerance of whistle-blowers, leakers, and attempts to subvert data services. Super-empowered citizens, however, will continue to find ways to support open and sustained dialogue through Tor networks and the like, building a voice for marginalized communities on a global stage. 3 17| Distributed Corruption Reporting | Future Innovation © 2013 Institute for the Future for Rockefeller Foundation.

4. © 2013 Institute for the Future for Rockefeller Foundation. All rights reserved. SR-1563B The effects that corruption has on development efforts were of great concern to players. While much discussion focused on this topic, the most innovative solutions linked anti-corruption efforts to mobile tracking systems and participatory mapping that distribute the risk of whistle blowing. Combining these efforts with increased transparency about money flows will only strengthen wider anti-corruption efforts. While many alternative Internet networks are considered nefarious in today’s media, players didn’t hesitate to point out the importance and potential use of darknets and Tor networks for anti-corruption and transparency efforts. 4 17 | Distributed Corruption Reporting | From the Players © 2013 Institute for the Future for Rockefeller Foundation.
