I kind of get both sides here. If we take the "see the best of others intentions" then a web that is populated by identified humans (and their authorised proxies!) is likely to be the "cleanest", most ideal web space we can see (a web full of sock puppets and link farms is not ideal).

The clearest end point for this is some government issued digital ID that just asserts who you are, acts as a login etc.

You can see this as a stepping stone to there. if you squint.

Is it the idealism of the 70s coke to life? No. Is it some sane compromise - I think so.

What if we cannot trust our government ? Sorry it is pretty sure that no internet is going to solve that. That's on the real world.

Already exists in a bunch of countries. Works better in some than in others.

The issue is that you don't want everything tied to that ID. In a less than ideal world, ideally the ID would just attest that some random pseudo-ID is real. Like Webauthn, kinda.

How would a user ever verify that every attlestation/id check isn't recording their web activity?
