In that case you have to say that it was purely accidental that heroin tore through the ghetto while most of white society was unaffected. And then the same thing happened accidentally twenty years later.

Within five years we're going to see gigantic walled gardens where people can only sign in using their given name and confirming by a passport or driving license. We can already see sites where you have to use a OTP or authenticator code on a smart phone to sign in. Extrapolating your identity from that info is trivial.
