This data is already public. You can just create a kbin account and see who's voting. Anyone wanting to scrape it already can, the only difference proposed is the Lemmy client showing it.

It should then be unpublicised.

This is not possible with how the underlying protocol (ActivityPub) works. It has no mechanism for private votes.
