The fact that *renting* is at all possible suggests to me that the following situation *could* arise:

* A market of lessors arises.
* A surveillor creates multiple identities.
* Each fake identity rents separately from multiple lessors.
* Surveillor gets privacy data by paying out rent money to the lessor market.

In defiads, I and Tamas pretty much concluded that rental would happen inevitably.
One could say that defiads was a kind of fidelity bond system.
Our solution for defiads was to prioritize propagating advertisements (roughly equivalent to the certificates in your system, I think) with larger bonded values * min(bonded_time, 1 year).
However, do note that we did not intend defiads to be used for privacy-sensitive applications like JoinMarket/Teleport.


Regards,
ZmnSCPxj
