    We really need identity redundancy tech. 2-3 separate identities for everybody. We now face risks of 3 kinds of death: 1. Physical death 2. Social death: being canceled etc 3. Stack death: identity theft, documentation SNAFUs

        Mmnno....physical death is a redundant term for "death." The others aren't deaths, they are setbacks, evidenced by the fact that they can be overcome.

        I like it - but the effort to avoid leaving enough clues for bad actors to re-correlate these identities would be extreme - or impossible.

        @lopp did an interesting presentation on 3. The video is available somewhere. Jameson links are slick ( crypto). Take some time and meditate his approach on 3https://blog.lopp.net/modest-privacy-protection-proposal/ …

        Wallet death. You lose your private keys. Could be clubbed under 3 though.

        on 2: As threat of "being canceled" rises, we will evolve to minimize damage via reinvention/adaptation/realization of replaceability of shallow outer circle (there to pay us, retweet us, like us). Inner circle there nursing us through injury/booting social death from doorstep
