central thing I'm trying to say is that there's not much point in
having policies regarding behavior if there's no way to enforce them,
and there's no way to enforce policies when anyone can use an
anonymizer and create a hundred sock-puppet identities for
themselves.
But do we have any evidence that anyone has actually done this?
I mean, we do have problems with persistent vandals and trolls and
whatnot, and we ought to look for technical measures, including stuff
in the general area of what you're talking about. But I'm not
convinced that people using anonymizers and creating sock-puppet email
accounts is a big part of that problem.
