Proposal: The Middlemen

Timed out and enacted, 4-2. Josh

Adminned at 07 Sep 2021 15:19:32 UTC

In “Anonymous Tips”, replace “A Cell is an Informant or not (defaulting to not); this is privately tracked by the Ministry of Information. A Cell with 1 or more Adherents can become an Informant by unambiguously and privately informing the Ministry of Information that they are now an Informant. A Cell whose Ideological Proximity with the Ministry of Information is less than 1 is never an Informant.” with:-

A Cell is an Informant if and only if they have an Adherent with a Workplace of “Committee Hall”, are not Hot, and have an Ideological Proximity with the Ministry of Information which is greater than zero.

Replace “set the Accuser to Hot and not an Informant” with “set the Accuser to Hot”.

Replace “congratulating by Name a secretly random Adherent of a secretly random Informant Cell” with “congratulating by Name a secretly random Citizen from those who have a Workplace of Committee Hall”.

Merging Informant Cells into Adherent Workplaces: you can only create a Tip if you have someone working at Committee Hall, and keep your nose clean.

If you’re thinking what I’m thinking, I agree.

What’s the objection, Ministry?

Making it harder to be an Informer runs contrary to my interests, and making being an Informer specifically dependent on public information is enough that I’m wavering towards a veto, were my imperial styles not mechanical/restrained

It’s quite weak public information, isn’t it? The Workplace Registry might tell everyone that John Doe works at Committee Hall, but not which Cell he belongs to.
