Who Am I Online? Managing Personal Identity in Web3

Our discussion will focus on anonymity and personal information control. On one hand, anonymity allows individuals to express themselves freely without fear of retribution or judgment based on their personal beliefs or identity. On the other hand, requiring real names can help promote accountability and discourage negative behavior.

We will also consider how much control users and organizations should have over information about themselves in web3. While some information might be relevant and important for the public to know, there is a risk of doxing and slander when information has no filters.

Through this discussion, we hope to find a balance between anonymity and accountability and to consider the implications of information control in the digital world.
