I predict an epidemic of illegal content from spoofed sources, for the purpose of both hiding/protecting the actual source and getting innocent alleged sources into trouble with the law.
There are going to be problems, of course.
But I think the amount of bullying that goes on from accounts that are not using real names has become a real problem over the years. I used to advocate for a Wild West, thinking people were responsible like me, and who could judge how to use their freedom. But most people seem to need some authority in this area, it seems.
