Accounts with GAN Faces Attack Belgium over 5G Restrictions

But forced verification = people complaining about the lack of anonimity (which I would support too). Whistleblowing would be more restricted (or they could trust Twitter to keep their identity a secret, until a Twitter employee leaks their info for some money, e.g. Saudi money: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/alexkantrowitz/how-saud... )

Why not make it pseudonymous, and then federate identity verification by having neutral third-parties attest to who you are?

Because approximately zero non-crypto-geek humans would participate, as the mechanism is inscrutable and of dubious value.

The complete failure of the PGP “web of trust” is a precedent.
