  But that’s also what we had in early 00s. A bunch of emails, a bunch of ICQ numbers, other such things, but ultimately your only persona to contact with others was your real one.

  You will, it’ll be protected and the police will come for you.

  All those “I won’t have a problem” imply you’ll be strong enough, they will be ready for you.

  I didn’t notice there to be less hate in spaces mostly without anonymity, or less false bravery.

  However, being “anonymous”, but identifiable with some work is still better than being identifiable immediately.

  It’s the opposite of security, people create tools to have perfect forward secrecy, ephemeral keys, deniability - all for good reasons, now someone wants put a metaphorical gun to everyone’s heads telling we’ll be safer.

  It’s really better to not say anything approving in that direction. Every word matters.

  I agree. We should realize the following:

  1. There are things we are not entitled to.

  2. There are things we are entitled to.

  3. There is Nintendo’s opinion on which is which.

  4. There’s someone else’s opinion on which is which.

  5. There’s law which should be a dignified compromise between these.

  6. The law may or may not be such a compromise.

  7. Our obligations before law mirror our rights.

  8. Our engagement with law mirrors our participation in forming it.

  9. We have been robbed of that ability and raise our voice where it matters.

  10. Hence Nintendo’s opinion and said law don’t matter shit.
