noteworthy rivers and fires do have Wikipedia pages
Identity in network computing is difficult, because it requires us to hammer square pegs into round holes. "What peer on behalf of what human and to what record?" is the wrong question a lot of the time, and there isn't a right one. Where is the identity of a river or a fire?

I'm strongly convinced of the clear identity of cables, and I could probably be convinced about some identity inhering in the nodes at the ends of those cables.

Identity in network computing could be much easier with content-addressed networks. E.g. network identity as secure hash of public key, discovery and routing via DHT (e.g. Chord or Tapestry). Network computing is difficult because someone saw an opportunity to sell IP addresses.

I agree! "This content is the same as that content, they have the same name" is a clearer idea than "this particular record". I think we can come up with ideas that fit into networks better than identity (eg. "content", "name", "address") for making good systems.
