I'm not suggesting we do away with all forms of anonymity. I can imagine electronic
communities where anything goes and no one can trace the real origin of
information - or verify its authenticity.
You would enter such a community - by deciding to read or watch the information
posted there - at your own risk, and if people said offensive or untrue things to
you, your only recourse would be to set the record straight in the same forum.
Consenting adults should be entitled to participate in this kind of community. But
kids certainly should not.
