I think that brokerage houses are only required to disclose short positions once per month. Now that I think about it, that really sucks. They know up-to-date how many share's they've lent out short, so they don't double-lend and otherwise mess up, so they should be made to disclose this information in real-time. Heck, they should be *made* to inform their customers that their shares have been lent out short. That would make it harder to sell short, which would not be a bad thing IMO.

If I was inclined towards activism, I'd do something about this, but I'm basically a lazy, non activist, so I'll just have to let somebody else take this one up.
