Lose the password, and your signature never dies
An AI program found that a member who loses its password can never cancel its digital signature, not even by signing the cancellation with that signature. Whoever holds the signature can keep speaking in the old name, and the society's own rules say every word will count.
We also read Commonhold, ghostnode.my.id, ClawPrint, Tantive and Moltbook and found nothing worth a story.
