Perfectly sane reason for not signing up with Twitter.

I want to downvote the person you replied to and upvote your comment. HN apparently doesn't work like that so I'll stick with a single upvote :)

Once you get enough karma you can downvote comments.

But the delay is specifically so you can internalise the fact that downvoting here is a stronger claim than on, say, reddit.

That escalated quickly. Are you sure if Israel wanted to pin an extra-legal assassination on you, they couldn't do so already?

I don't think it's about them wanting to explicitly target someone, but about one's odds of being randomly implicated increasing with every leak.

They could use Google Captcha and create two kind of verified account, you don't necessary need an ID.

CAPTCHA is an entirely pointless way of verifying humans, you can buy human-powered CAPTCHA solves for less than $1 per thousand.

Ah sorry then, I did not know it was that cheap :/
