About this Site

This site is dedicated to the exploration and discussion of a very old concept of anonymity in private and business life:

The Venetian Bauta mask and disguise

Man in venetian carnival costume

The mask was standardized and its use was regulated by government to give Venetian citizens the freedom to do business, to pursue interests on their own and to take part in political activities without being identified while still being recognized and respected as legitimate and honorable members of the Venetian society.

I would like to find out if this concept could be a paradigm for internet identity management and anonymity concepts.
