This is The Correct Answer™.
Misc governments already operate 1,000s of identity, credentialing, and licensing services.
Wouldn't it be great if profiles on DoorDash, Yelp, Hotels, etc. were required to be linked to IRL identities and licenses?
- nkohari 5y agoI suppose it depends on how much you want ~all of your online activity to be attributed to your real identity, in such a way that could be easily examined by the government.
- specialist 5y agoAuthenticity and anonymous speech are not mutually exclusive. Stop pretending they are.
- d110af5ccf 5y agoYou are the only one who mentioned speech, "online activity" is what was referred to. You specifically suggested linking profiles to government identification. "Linking" wouldn't seem to leave much room for anonymity regardless of activity.
- specialist 5y agoWhat's online activity if not speech? If DoorDash has a fake profile for D111af5ccf's Divine Donuts, is that not a crime? Impersonation, fraud, theft of IP, etc. Again, how does authenticity conflict with free speech? Examples, please.
