I always wonder, do the people in power not appreciate their own communications being secure against surveillance? Or do they think they're somehow going to get the secret not-backfires option?

To be honest, this doesn't sound like a horrible way to govern.
No political parties, but house and senate approval needed to pass anything.

Eswatini's government is an absolute monarchy, the last of its kind in Africa.[22] The country has been ruled by King Mswati III since 1986.[23][24] Elections are held every five years to determine the House of Assembly and the Senate majority, but political parties are prohibited from running.[25] Eswatini's constitution was adopted in 2005.

Yay Census! Hopefully the government doesn't immediately post unanonymized data an open S3 bucket!

If I ever ran for office, I'd run on a single issue, government transparency.
Unless it was super duper top secret, every single gov't decision must be automatically and immediately posted to public page/site that had a RSS/Fediverse feed.
Governments are FOR the people BY the people, give us the info!
Let us deal w/ the firehose of information, we can take it!
