Can we "pin" this to HN front page in perpetuity?
I'm joking but I'm also serious. It's (IMO) basic hygiene at this point.
The Internet used to be like Burning Man, today it's more like Bangkok.
Flipping it around what this really means is that taking any particular assertion made online seriously without some "certificate" (same root as "certain") as to who stands by it, is wildly, childishly, naive. (Including that one, and this one.)
The real question (as alluded to in TFA) is, "Whom do you trust?"
