If you don't trust the project, you wouldn't contribute to it. The state actor may be able to fake identities, but that would still allow tracking the identity to a particular state... and if caught multiple times, that state would start losing credibility and projects may choose to stop trusting people from such nationality, unfortunately, or at least require more strong evidence the person is real and trustworthy if they come from known rogue nations.

> If you don't trust the project, you wouldn't contribute to it. Trust them to merge a bugfix is different from trusting them with my identity isn't it? There are degrees of trust. For example I have a gmail address in my profile because the spam filter on there is better than what I have on my personal domain. People I've known for longer, business or otherwise, get the other (that I read more often).
