A crazy thought I had is that agents without a link to human identity might need to be treated as illegal. That human identity would be blamed the for the agent's actions.

Trust to not subcontract this service to some spying company like Google? > couldn't zero-knowledge proofs be used to allow such a system? They could, but will they really be zero knowledge or there will be some intermediary leftovers that aren't zero knowledge? See trust in competence above.
