Couldn't he return the question to you? I mean would your answers differ if you were or weren't Satoshi?

Let people have their privacy.

If I were both Szabo and Satoshi, I would answer "no" to that question, because in that case I would lie on that question.

Not following..Can you explain?

I mean that he would answer exactly the same if he was or not Satoshi.

Then what's the point of your question?

The point is that asking Szabo if he is Satoshi is pointless since you will get a 'no' as answer if he is or not.
