second hand market, chances are the you will be deceived.</p><p>Possibly worse, if there's an ATM on the outside wall of a shack where Hells Angels meet, would you insert your bank card and enter your PIN?</p><p>On the web, most people do not know WHERE they are.</p><p>Big Tech is DELIBERATELY withholding essential information from people, required to determine the amount of trust that a website deserves.</p><p>DELIBERATELY, because big tech can rent much more (cheap) hosting and (meaningless) domain names to whomever if website vistors cannot distinguish between authentic and fake websites.</p><p>You are right that some people will never understand why they need to know who owns a website.</p><p>However, most people (including <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@troyhunt" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>troyhunt</span></a></span> ) would enormously benefit.</p><p>Like all the other deaf and blind trolls, you trash a proposal because it may be useless for SOME, you provide zero solutions and you keep bashing me.</p><p>What part of "get lost" do you not understand?</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.ar.al/@aral" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>aral</span></a></span>
