One of my more radical beliefs is that many more classes of governance actions should be anonymous / secret ballot (eg. I've advocated for secret-ballot UN general assembly votes before) This situation is a good argument for judges' identities being hidden (!!) when they make their rulings. The function of a judge is to rule according to the facts as interpreted through their conscience, not to be "accountable" to violent mobs.

The issue here is not that judges are doxxed. In fact that's healthy in a well-functioning society, because it lets them take part in public life to represent their institution. This attack is a symptom of state capture in the US that won't be solved by anon voting.

Judges should be doxxed, I'm saying their individual decisions should not be.

sounds horrible. How else do we ejected new judges or impeach them? Very bad idea.
