Why follow people on #Keybase?

As hinted above, an older follower statement is superior to a new one. It's hard for a hacker to maintain a public compromise of all of maria's accounts over a span of many months. Maria or maria's friends would surely notice.
By comparison, if you started following Maria right now, today could've been the day all her accounts were broken into, simultaneously.
Therefore, an older follower statement is a better one.
