Ironically, when I attempt to add a blog comment to the above 
statement (supporting it in principle) I am asked to sign in with 
either my Google or my Facebook account.

I don't want to do that, for reasons that are explained in the Danube 
Tech statement.

IMO, therefore, it's not unreasonable to ask that Danube Tech should 
place this statement and blog somewhere else, or at very least explain 
that such a thing is impossible until DIDs exist in the way that they 
are describing.  ;-)
