I spend a lot of time thinking about the counter culture kids you would find in a highschool, the ones rooting phones, torrenting movies, hacking the schools WiFi to steal teachers passwords, keyloggers in the library. In that sense, its a viable strategy, but it should be reserved for fruit that hangs lower than alternatives, why bother when you have twitter? We already have a relatively limited user base, let's not punish people for wanting to use it.
The other frame to consider is the pipeline to self sovereignty, and this platform is an early step to that path, adding roadblocks may mean people never get started. No user facing app should make it any harder to get going than it needs to be anyways.
