Ah, I see. Though I would call this manipulative, not dishonest.

entities that seems honest are the most secretly dishonest

It's the converse. By definition, dishonest entities (that are good at what they do) will appear honest.

Definitions aside, let's go back to my original argument. To rephrase it a bit: A transparently manipulative entity is better than a deceptive and manipulative entity. So why protest the added transparency and not the manipulation?
