Ask HN: Is an “extremely” transparent version of Facebook/Twitter viable?
Is it viable to have a social media site where identity of every participant is visible to everyone? So anonymity will be impossible. If you need an account on this site, you need use the country specific mechanism that will identify you.
So what do you get for this transparency? - Freedom of speech. Nothing will be censored. - No bots (maybe).
In such a forum, will there be fewer assholes, trolls, bad actors etc.?
PS: I don't have a Facebook or Twitter account. My opinions are based on second hand information.
