While it's true that mandatory identity verification will inevitably be leaked on a massive scale, the thing you need to understand when framing these arguments is that a lot of the folks in favour of such measures don't see that as a bad thing. Full de-anonymisation of the Internet is their explicit goal. Like, the actual objective here is for everyone to have a public record of everything they say and do – online or otherwise – linked to their government ID. The universal panopticon is the good ending as far as these people are concerned.

[evonnagale]

So what's the better way to frame these arguments? Is there one?

[prokopetz]

If your aim is to persuade, you can't just stop at "your identity and activities will be made public". A lot of the people you're trying to convince don't see that as bad in and of itself, and as far as they're concerned, the fact that you do means you've got something you hide. You need to take it past "your identity and activities will be made public" and hit specific, actionable negative consequences of that disclosure.

[canadianwheatpirates]

Negative consequences such as, for example, identity theft going through the roof

[elf-kid2]

-Identity Theft through the roof

-Kids stealing their [parent/older sibling/aunt/uncle/grandparent/babysitter]'s ID to access inappropriate content online

-Stalker's Paradise!

-Bullies doxxing their targets just got WAY EASIER

-Burglers & Robbers want to know when YOU'VE been planning a vacation! Thanks to Everything You Do Online, including "researching beaches & tourist spots" and "purchasing plane-tickets" being PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE, these nefarious thieves KNOW that they can rob and/or vandalize your house when you're out of town!

-Your Boss can now monitor if you've been searching online for other job-opportunities, researching employment-laws, or googling "how to start a union." Your Boss can punish you for googling things.

when i was 12 i babysat this girl for a few years and she would come to me and show me her art, drag me by my wrists and point at the pieces she’d made during the week. and she’d be like “do the voice” and i’d put on a sports-announcer olympics-style voice and be like “such form! this level of coloring! why i haven’t seen such perfection in crayola in a long time. and what is this? why jeff, now this is a true risk… it seems she’s made … a monochrome pink canvas…. i haven’t seen this attempted since winter 1932… and i gotta say, jeff, it’s absolutely splendid”  and she’d fall back giggling. at the end of every night she’d check with me: “did you really like it?” and i’d say yes and talk about something i noticed and tucked her in.

she was just accepted into 3 major art schools. she wrote me a letter. inside was a picture from when she was younger. monochrome pink. 

“thank you,” it said, “to somebody who saw the best in me.”

(unhinged ask) if hozier exists what would hoziest be like

already at the church

takes his whiskey straight from the bottle, eats coffee grounds, in bed by five

does want to know if this feeling flows both ways (yes i know that’s an arctic monkeys cover. whatever)

no grave can hold his body down he’d RUN home to her

he WOULD fare well

knows EIGHT new ways to eat your young

strong enough he wouldn’t break beneath the weight of the goodness, love, he still carries for you
