VO, Perhaps they need a centrally administered site across the web, some kind of extra-national thing providing bona-fides for web interactions. One would register with conventional documents such as drivers license, passport etc. and you'd log on to it (some generated bit string unique to oneself) before doing any secured site surfing to say you are currently on the net, the secured site would then quiz it to find out who you were no matter what the moniker?
Just a guess without thinking things through. A sort of centralised repository of names, webs, computer serial numbers etc. If you don't sign up, you don't play. Sleepy and dozy at the moment so point the flaws out please. Might be back Tuesday.

Where anonymity is banned (or where money is involved,) some places refuse to honor yahoo.com email addresses or other free email services for confirmations.
