So you mean BTC is mainly adopted by people wants 100% privacy? On the contrary, it's possible that the majority haven't adopt BTC just because of the anonymity. Most of people heard of BTC but haven't convinced to use them because they think the government will not allow such things to exist. The main objective of BTC foundation is not to increase its anonymity, but to explain to the authority that it's not as anonymous as they think.
This isn't about anonymity.
If the government wants to know who you are, they'll subpoena your landlord to tell them.
Are you saying the majority of people want the unknown to-be-rapist down the street to know their every purchase, telling him where you've been and what you buy?
They want the pedophile-to-be to know when and where they drop their children off at childcare?
I understand the argument you make here and agree with it. I also understand you have good intentions trying to force developers to respond. I disagree with removing choice from the user. Not every user desires or requires privacy. If it's a government address such as the FBI or a non-profit then they'll be able to have privacy too. In the case of the FBI they might want that privacy, in the case of the non-profit they likely don't want it, and people want and expect complete transparency from a non-profit.
So certain addresses in my opinion should be persistent addresses. If you want to discourage the use of persistent addresses then attach a fee to miners to allow specific addresses to be persistent if that fee is paid.
