reflection

I believe anonymity should exist and not be banned for any reason. Anonymity serves us all to keep our accounts and profiles private. Without anonymity, we would be exposed to the world on everything we say and think. Sometimes people want to say things without anyone knowing its them,and without anonymity this wouldn't be possible. However when anonymity is being used in a harmful way, I strongly go against it. I do not support anonymity being used in any negative and harmful way. Anonymity should not be used in any other way than in a respectful or responsible way. For example anonymity is used for trolling and that is  where I draw the line. We shouldn't ban anonymity just because of trolls. If you really think about it, your taking away that opportunity of people having the freedom to speak anonymously. From this unit I have got more experience on anonymity and trolling and how it serves/affects us.

  1. I agree. Not everyone deserves the consequences. I hope that sooner or later we find a way to overcome online trolls.

  2. I also agree. Not everybody should be punished because of immature web users. Anonymity is very helpful. Especially when it comes to personall situations.
