its weird having been around {crypto,cypher}punks talk about the difficulty of identity management on technical grounds, and then turn around and see people basically say "we shouldn't bother to have strong identities when we make important decisions."

:blobcatlul:
We need to upload our PGP fingerprint already 😀

Identity and descisions: #IdentityPolitics is mostly about dividing people, based on often cherryPicking facts about a leader.

#Sortition is about randomly picking a #CitizensJury to make important decisions. Sortition with #PGP might work if you trust a persons security model is okay. Internet is not 100% reliable though. The sortition process would need to be publicised, well-attended and #streamed.
have looked in to keys.pub a little. seems to be an attempt to copy what keybase tried to do with alternative PKI.
Maybe #GnuPG has what you are looking for, but we could be wrong.
gpg doesn't solve the key exchange problems.

which person claiming to be quinns fingerprint is the real one?

keybase/keys.pub try to make a signature chain so a profile can point to that, which then points back to other sites like blob.cat and iceworks, so if @mewmew decided to change my profile you could tell that it didn't line up with other quinn-like objects.
