One thing at stake here, is whether or not it will be possible for individuals to be anonymous in the future.  If you could, for example, totally stop people from being anonymous, and operating under the banner of Anonymous, what kind of society would this be, one where it is impossible to do anything without it being associated with you.  And throw on top of that, that which is you can be found at any time, and there is no way to escape it.  The founder of Wikileaks expressed concerns over this state happening.  In such a state, complete with computers monitoring and tracking everything, the system is ripe to be taken over by an authoritarian government.  In such a system, if you are opposed to the system, and want to organize protests, and the government wants to silence you, then then can find you and arrest you.

So, question here is: Anyone want to live in a society like this?  Do you, if it means you can play your videogame console non-stop without threat of hackers?
