Unless your target audience is one that expects honesty. Which is apparently too quaint a notion, these days.
What you tell your kids when they lie? "It's cool, everyone does it. I should have known better than to have believed you. Truth is a convenient fiction that can never be achieved in reality because no one is an objective observer of reality and everyone is working an angle."
