After reading the story of anonymity on the internet, I felt that a person doesn’t have to stay anonymous. If someone had an important note or comment to say but they don’t want to reveal their identity then they should be able to use a different name or user name in order to feel secure about posting online. I also liked the way that he put the story together by taking different links and posts by online contributors. He did not take it upon himself to tell the story, and say whether or not anonymity is okay or not. He used other people and their thoughts in order to tell the story, which makes the different arguments more authentic because it takes the opinions of real people who may or may not want to be anonymous online. I also like how there was a video incorporated into the story because it offers different media into the story telling. Although stories want to provide the facts, they also want to be visually interesting so people will read them and this video offers that. Regardless, if people believe that anonymity is bad or good, the option should always be available.
