Yes, the global rise of fascism is a huge problem. Gleefully handing fascists more power over communications and a means of de-anonymizing access to information and communications is exactly what you don't want to do. That's what this sudden movement is really about: maintaining bubbles of indoctrination to maintain the rightward slide of the Overton Window, and installing a permanent means of tying Internet activity to identity for monitoring. It's important that things like the first amendment never be compromised precisely because that erosion becomes a tool of fascism. We're inches away from neo-McCarthyism, and this is the tool to enable it.
