 i also think wide disclosure of this in real terms will curb the behavior of writing the narratives of others for them and stealing identities - assigning information to people against permission. for example: sharing a document and then someone using their grandchild as a tag to have that document placed under their identity... as stake or future pow theft depending on the plan. this is a future-looking forecast, but is an incredibly imprudent education to pursue. if people know they will be revealed as maligning or lying about others intentionally to gain custody of work because that person will be leveraged as mentally unstable because of those direct discourses - there's less incentive to force narratives onto others for this outcome.
