The several fake Facebook accounts I use for testing purposes would like to have a word with you. In my experience Facebook doesn't try to filter out fake accounts very heavily unless you use them to create spam. And I prefer to keep Facebook as far as possible away from "real" IDs like my passport, driver's license, etc.

> In the Governet you'd still be censored
Only for stuff that would be illegal in offline life as well... anything that you're allowed to do in offline life, under whatever extent of freedom of expression is permitted by your country would still be uncensored.
This is already done in closed-doors forums and whatnot. If you mean the ID should be government-issued, you have Facebook where fake accounts area nearly impossible at this point and it's pretty close to a "Governet". In the Governet you'd still be censored because their goal isn't to sue everyone (that's expensive and doesn't always work), it's just to control them.
