Is there a standard way to convert an encryption key into a human readable name?

Because then we could have a service where you signed everything with your key and then you were know as whatever the hash of that key is - and you can create a new identity with a new key, but your name won't be linked to any real world identity.

I barely use Facebook or Twitter compared to reddit, and I suspect it is because of the real name issues, that makes those places just not as much fun.

That sounds like the tripcode system you see on imageboards like 4chan.

Yes, but people are leaky with regards to OpSec even when they’re trained and motivated to be non-terrible at it, and most people are not trained at all.
