Information or data, shedding light on things. Illuminating dark or shadowy things. Let's people see.
Usually if someone is talking about lights they seem to be talking about some party providing info or intel to a target audience of one or more people, I assume usually with a desired effect.

In symbolic, operational, or psychological contexts, light represents revelation, awareness, and exposure—the transition from concealment to clarity. In intelligence or psyop language, to “bring something to light” means to reveal hidden information or uncover a covert action, while “staying in the light” implies maintaining visibility or moral ground to avoid manipulation.
Metaphorically, light can also signify truth, consciousness, or higher knowledge, standing in contrast to deception, suppression, or “the dark.” In operational use, it might refer to a signal, clearance, or activation—as in giving “the green light” for an action. Across meanings, light serves as the boundary between secrecy and exposure, where control over visibility determines power.
