IMO UN resolution votes should be secret ballot. Each country can choose (and replace) their own representative, but once the choice is made, what the representative does is up to their own conscience. Less "pressuring" by great powers, more seeing how people really think.

More generally, perhaps a core theme of the next wave of democracy will be less "transparency and accountability" and more deliberate indirection and room for (pluralistic, aggregated) individual conscience. (this applies to DAOs too; eg. see NounsDAO https://aztec.network/blog/nounsdao-private-voting-final-update)

Do we have any mitigations for blind bribing, e.g. Lobbyist announces they will disburse $10M to a random subset of qualified voters iff proposal A passes. (Is this an ineffective strategy?)
