If this works as advertized it solves the TRUE NAMES problem in one fell swoop. Self managed ID's for the masses. WORLDCOIN looks like a fool-proof plan https://worldcoin.org/blog/engineering/humanness-in-the-age-of-ai The trouble is fools are so ingenious

Fascism is as fascism does - and both WL and the AU Armed Forces were demonstrably fascist by 2011 and 2004 respectively. Nick McKenzie and Anthony Galloway, The Age, March 2023 | Soldiers of hate: Army investigates neo-Nazis in its ranks, ‘The Australian Army has discovered serving members are neo-Nazis. “… Mr Assange agreed that some level of privacy was necessary for the successful operation of the military …” http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/drive/assange-i-can-rule-from-… JULIAN " ‘[The military] protects the sovereignty of Australia. It protects the independence of Australia.’ ASSANGE July, 2013

Everybody wants to get into the act. Earlier today, Senator Lindsey Graham posted a tweet urging Donald Trump to “smash some windows, rob a few shops and punch a cop” in order to avoid being criminally charged in New York. Seven hours later, the tweet is still there, and Graham appears to still have access to his account. " The govt is the great, the omnipotent teacher " - Louis Brandeis In related news Sen Graham called for the assassination of KGB chief Pooter - hey, there's an app for that! https://stiffs.com/celebrity/vladimirputin Any prediction market on any person is also an assassination market on that person - Bell's Theorem

TRUE NAMES - a move from P2P towards open standards

Alone in the dark or blinded by the Brin is not a choice I care to make. There has to be a better way. Anarchist ' need-to-know ' and ' Don't-ask-don't-tell " security culture meets cypherpunk demands for absolute secrecy in this matter. Calls for alignment! I know some OG's that were leery of Big Dog's public-facing aspect. Still - such a nippy compromise with the translucent society has paid off and various patches and kludges applied to bootstrap up the trillion dollar, golden-goose, crypto-economy we all enjoy today. So now we can leverage our power to keep pressing on for the inalienable right of total anonymity. " TRUE NAMES " Those who would lay their hand on me to discover my identity I declare them my enemy. The cypherpunk way is not rocket-science - its privacy for the pleb and transparency for the powerful. Love it or leave it.
