I see, guess I underestimated the problem a bit, I have to think about it some more.

I don't see how replacing a unique id with a unique hash would have any effect on that. Even if you use a variable hash (that would change every time you change your vote) you just have to make sure that the backend properly removes the old value on a new call.

You use a one-way hash instead of the current identifiable key that is used to store the vote value.

There’s not really a way to do votes privately on a federated system.

It's a minor technical problem.

Huh?

But these clowns are surprisingly common and much more of a problem than some trigger happy votes.

IMO, it enforces some sort of accountability to people’s voting behaviour.

But that was never something that was needed.

Instead now you get mods like this going around banning people for votes, which is intimidating people from voting and is removing the communities ability to hold bad posts accountable.

Public votes are probably the dumbest lemmy "feature", so much unnecessary drama because of it.

Sure there are some security cameras, but unless there is an incident that footage never see the light of day.

Remember that everyone is tapped with microphones and cameras known as smartphones

No, that's a baseless conspiracy.

At any moment, someone can whip out their phone and you could instantly be the next Reality TV Star

I guess there is a small chance of going viral and have a few days of fame but I would hardly call that being a star. Also I'll actively stay away from people that do selfies and tiktoks to further reduce chances of that happening to me.

Not sure what you're talking about ... I'm pretty much never on camera.

So the only possible definition left is that an assassination is a killing that serves an end instead of being the end itself.

So every murder of a parent or spouse to get inheritance or insurance money is an assassination? That seems a bit too broad.

Also I can think if like a dozen possible other definitions that have not been ruled out.
