Step -1.) Demand real name's to protect the childrens.
Step 0.) We did it! Everyone has to use real names now! Equality unlocked!
Step 1.) Put in someone else's real name instead of your own.
Step 2.) Troll as that person or use that real name to infiltrate that person's social network
Step lulz.) Doxx brigade/morality police now target the wrong person.
Step 3.) Congratulations, not only did you not solve the problem you were trying to solve, now your rules are a robust breeding ground to cause actual social and economic damage to people YOU ALREADY AGREE WITH because "pixels are feelings, too".
Step 4.) Hang your head in shame for such short-term thinking.
Step 5.) Downvote me because of tone.
- PretzelFisch 10y agoso, make them prove their id. Sure it doesn't scale but now you would have to actually steal someone's identity rather than just use a fake name.
- EekSnakePond 10y agoSometimes, I can't tell if the newer generation understands that Photoshop is a thing or not. Also, I'm pretty sure they have no idea that when you create a massive repository of identities to try and protect the childrens, you're just painting a huge bullseye on the back of it's database. It's like people believe Russians hacked the election, but no one could EVER hack a central repository of identities! Why, it's protected by good intentions and saving the childrens! Oh hey, another 1 billion Yahoo! identities got leaked...
