US antispam bill is death to anonymity

[Dan Geer]

The natural consequence of zero-cost ("free") speech 
is to make freedom from speech (privacy) unquenchably
attractive.

If you would preserve anonymity, you must raise the 
costs of those who will not shut up.  We technocrats
have had years to do something and we have not; the
ball is now in other courts.
