Thanks for sharing, this was interesting to read! I wonder if the approach in the "How to win clone wars" section would also work to limit the number of accounts one can have on a given service (the article seems to rather consider rate limiting). It would be refreshing to have a forum where everyone is guaranteed to have at most 1 (or perhaps 2, say one anonymous and one with your name) account that is also backed by a unique government ID (without disclosing to the government your account or even that you have one). This could help a lot with the bot spam and trust issues.
