No one said identify fraud, I said flag potential fraud. There are some people who think it's a useful heuristic for uncovering potential oddities. Academics may not think so, but perhaps people who are professional analysts do. Ultimately it comes down to who's side you want to take, and whether that's going to result in something akin to censorship. Also, part of the reason I don't like commenting on any remotely political HN posts is that you get downvotes for saying perfectly reasonable things.
