Why do people think anonymity is a right?
"The Internet was done so well that most people think of it as a natural resource like the Pacific Ocean, rather than something that was man-made. When was the last time a technology with a scale like that was so error-free? The Web, in comparison, is a joke. The Web was done by amateurs."
When the Internet was developing it seemed to be a tool for liberalization. We have shat on that and thrown it out the window. Most people I know visit 5-10 websites per month. These websites are in the hands of a few individuals. The point is the concept of the internet is a wash. China employs tens of thousands of people to scrub the internet daily. US is probably not much better.
Are revolutions even occurring at a rate higher than any other period in history?
With all of this said. Why did the right of anonymity stick through this? I am pretty sure that ID's on social media sites would cause tensions to dissolve instantly.
Then again, we have license plates and I still have got run off the road a few times.
