#this will never happen
Because Marvel refuses to allow any of its’ twists to have longterm consequences within the MCU, it’s pretty obvious they’re going to find a way to cover-up/explain away Mysterio revealing Peter’s true identity with some dumb plot device. And I’ve seen some great fan theories and concepts (like Matt Murdock being hired to represent Peter in court) but I’d like to present something much more ridiculous and dare I say realistic.
Spider-Man is proved to not be Peter Parker through the meticulous data collection and evidence provided by an incredibly popular Spider-Man fan blog, that is anonymously run by someone who proves they’re a classmate of Peter Parker and proves that Peter was in places that Spider-Man was at the same time. Class pictures with timestamps, opera tickets, school event dates, all of which Peter was accounted as present for. Along with the evidence, the blog makes some damningly good arguments about how Peter Parker was only chosen out of convenience. The blog scrounges up documentation of Quentin Beck working for Tony Stark and being fired and then argues how Peter Parker is an intern of Stark Industries and Quentin Beck only used Peter as a last-ditch attempt to hurt the late Tony Stark, by accusing an intern who happened to be in the same areas of Spider-Man sightings.
The evidence and arguments are so meticulously complied, that everyone sees it as concrete proof and the name of Peter Parker fades back into obscurity. Peter is relieved to have his regular double life back, and everything goes back to normal.
The blog, of course, belongs to fucking Flash Thompson who absolutely REFUSES to believe Peter could be his idol, so in his denial, he went apeshit trying to prove it wrong and documented all of his findings on his blog. However, he’s never able to fully convince himself that Peter isn’t Spider-Man, and continues to creep on Peter 24/7 trying to figure out the truth.
