@atomicpoet Agree completely on gatekeepers being captured by malicious actors. However, I do think the issue of identification in journalism is important. Journalists and news media depend on their credibility. As do we. And that IDing should be fairly idiot-proof. Not sure there is a solution but it would be nice if there was one.
@johnwehrle Identity is a different nut to crack. Green checks are better than Twitter's old blue checks, but what we need even more is a complete re-evaluation of online identity—one that can't be owned by any corporate entity.
