yikes! anonymity...good or bad?

 Anonymity is a form of privacy. When you strip anonymity away from a person, whether it be a mobile device, or social media account, or whatever other source it strips a persons basic right to privacy away. Privacy despite its form, is a given right to everyone.Though some anonymous trolls give opinions not needed there are many people who decide to remain anonymous for good reasons. People may get more unbiased feedback of their messages, by not showing their real name. Anonymous tips can also be used as a good source of information. People also feel more equal or comfortable remaining anonymous especially during anonymous discussions that include things such as, status or gender. There are many more reasons why remaining anonymous for some can be more effective and just a more positive way to express yourself on the internet but these are just a few examples that I thought of.
