Cryptography affords an alternative. Cryptography enables untraceable
persistent pseudonyms created and maintained via chains of anonymizing
remailers and broadcast replies.
In the nightmare scenario that you describe, untraceable nyms may be
the only way that one can live as a responsible adult, rather than a
subject of a nanny state.
