@keithpp pssst. that's like saying "i own chris@m3mnoch.com and someone else owns chris@google.com. how will anyone know it's not me? this has to be fixed."
no, sir. it doesn't actually have to be fixed. just like it's never had to be fixed for email.
@keithpp by "across the internet", do you really mean email only works across the simple mail transfer protocol?
@m3mnoch No, not the same as e-mail, though I agree appears superficially so. To have any utility, and I make the point, this is a network, not isolated islands with weak links, @keithpp has to function across the network with no additional qualifier. The e-mail analogy is flawed because that is across the internet, not a specific network
