> the internet definitely is supposed to identify you If you have a rudimentary technical understanding of the internet, it's clear that the default assumption should be that you're identified unless presented with strong evidence/reasoning to the contrary. But what percentage of internet users do you think have any technical understanding of the internet? 20-30 percent, maybe? To most people it's basically magic, and they have no compelling reason to give any thought to how it works. Regulations should be designed with the common user in mind, not the technically proficient. If a company claims that they provide anonymity, they should live up to that promise or be prosecuted for false advertising.
