Have we really fallen so far that we cannot conceive of a person being
concerned for the welfare of someone other than themselves?
I don't try to hide my identity. I post under my real name and real
email address (under a domain that I own which is hosted on servers I
control, including one that sits a mere three feet from me right now).
But I'm not living in the PRC, and I don't take my life in my hands
simply by telling the truth. Some people do. Those are the people we
need to protect, and requiring email confirmation just makes it harder
and more risky for them.
