People on HN who talk about their work but want to remain anonymous? People who don’t want to be spammed if they comment in a community? Or harassed if they comment in a community? Maybe someone doesn’t want others to find out they are posting in r/depression. (Or r/warhammer.)
Anonymity is a substantial aspect of the current internet. It’s the practical reason you can have a stance against age verification.
On the other hand, if anonymity can be pierced with relative ease, then arguments for privacy are non sequiturs.
