> Governments want one ID to rule them all
Different accounts on multiple *services*, not multiple profiles on the *same* service.
I think you missed both Je suis Ploum and my point. Ploum argues you should maintain O(s^a) accounts for services you use. I'm arguing that while governments O(1), humans are not capable of either. In a homomorphically encrypted network, you only need to verify my access to a service is real and comes from a person, not who I am, where I originate, when I made the request, etc.. In a social network scenario, that someone with similar interest will attend the event. In fact, you shouldn't even need accounts for social networks, just that someone intends to join the described event, show up or not.
re universal tools
Of course I'm correct, TCP/IP would never be the protocol SNS choose, ever. Yet ITT, I'm the only one proposing distributed and decentralized models of networking.
