Greetings, everyone!
My response is that salaries and earnings shouldn't be published online for people to see because it's very risky and there is no wisdom in it.
At the moment, Nigerians are crying for security and protection from the Federal Government and the State Government against abduction, bandits, and killing, but nobody is showing up. Imagine a teacher and 49 others were abducted, and one of the teachers was beheaded because they demanded money and he didn't have to give, how much more of displaying our salaries to the public, if we do, we will create more problems that would lead to bloodshed.
Our country is not saved. We have good people with good intentions, and we have evil/wicked people with deadly intentions toward others, and their plans are to kill, steal, and destroy.
There are rich people who are not earning from the Federal Government or State Government, but they earn in dollars every day, and they are into businesses of their own, making money, profit, and helping people they want to help. Think of what will happen to these people if they display their accounts publicly. They will be exposed to attacks. Some relatives begged them for money, and they refused to give out. If the relatives saw their account in public, they might plan evil against them or tag the person a stingy person.

People who didn't like you, will start liking you because they saw your account, and they start moving closer to having access to your money without knowing their intentions.
Just like Hive Blockchain, where people's accounts are seen, some people follow others because of their HP or Hive account, and their reputation. Some people on Hive will know you have powered down your Hive, some will make a calculation of the amount you have on your wallet. Here, people are made visible but there is no stealing here. Since I joined Hive Blockchain, I have not heard of people's accounts or wallets being hacked. That's why our keys are kept secret and not posted publicly for others to see.
And not everybody is involved in crime in their earnings, some are genuine, but that shouldn't be an excuse for people to publish their details to the public. It's not authentic and advisable to do that. People are living their own way of life without any problem.
Our privacy means a lot, so let's protect ourselves from danger and from attacks. Anything that will create another story or history that will not be impactful should be avoided. Let's live our lives to the best we can.
In all, it's not a good move to publish salaries or earnings online for safety and protection purposes. And avoid unnecessarily invading your house or property which is not good. People should mind their own business and others' too.
Let's keep our fellowship with the Maker and hope to protect us day and night and from noisome pestilence that flies in and out. As God is protecting us, let's use wisdom to live our best life for ourselves and for others.
God, Work, earn, live, enjoy, and keep the secret of your life. Period.
No more transparency.
