You're getting downvoted, but you are at least mostly right. With video and audio deep fakes we are rapidly approaching a world where anything can be trivially faked by anyone. As a result, anonymous information is becoming worthless. Unless the provenance and chain of custody of a piece of evidence is precisely known, it has a high and growing likelihood of being bullshit. I do think there are roles for anonymity, but getting "the truth" out is not one of them. What is far more important is selective privacy and the ability for individuals to define their own envelope of visibility and trust. |

Entertainment, for example, can be safely consumed and have little impact on your day to day regardless of the source. Provided it's clearly meant for entertainment purposes.
However once you introduce some dependency of trust into your process (monetary transactions, health related data exchange, etc), I believe most people in this crowd would agree that they want crypto identity and attribution applied to the data at every stage of transformation.
And then there's everything in the middle... which again, I think should be left to the individual. Norms would eventually develop that would guide best practices.
Pipe dream stuff I know, but I don't see another way out. Open to other suggestions. And especially open to criticism about this approach. I don't want to be the one with the answer.
I just want an answer.
