Don't worry, you're not granted personhood here, you're recognized only as a forgable nym. Since you haven't linked anything irrefutable and persistent to your nym (e.g., claiming some public key is yours, and signing future messages with the private part), you are very likely a high-turnover group of ephemeral psyop pranksters distributed across 10 time zones who merely use the pronouncable label "Mark Leighton Fisher" (among others) who claims to work for something called "Thomson Consumer Electronics" which may or may not exist or be a front for anything. I could have readily used the very same nym, appearing to be from TCE, in this very post. You (or the group of pranksters that is your host platform, or the programmers who coded your bot) could not refute such a claim at this point. There is tech for doing so but using it is your choice. BTW, you might use one of your public keys solely for communications here, and use your other keys with your other correspondents. Unless of course you want to link reputations irrefutably. Again, your choice. Don't take offense at such personal deconstruction. I'm merely pointing out what we *actually* know, vs. what is claimed. > As TCE's parent company is French (TMM, >Thomson Multimedia), it would be interesting to know what are the opinions >of TMM on some of the subjects covered on cypherpunks...] As they're French, I'm sure they'd be fascinated by industrial espionage and similar games people play...
