> What problem is Fred trying to solve? > The blog post is already authenticated because it’s on avc.com. Fred Wilson has the tokens, social authority etc to ensure what shows up there under his name is from him. Haven't you answered your question? Most people don't own a domain, that's the problem signing solves.

I cannot do that if John Doe doesn't have its own website.
