this is a strawman

the problem lies in media literacy. it’s not only solvable, but it’s “solved”. taking away privacy is not the solution.

no fucking way. even db0 doesn’t know my real name.

there is no way I’d give up anonymity online.

that meme that circulated a couple days ago that showed all the ways bumper stickers make you a target is a great illustration. if my name was tied to everything I said online, I wouldn’t say anything, since I’d just be making myself a target.

the solution is to spread media literacy, which is a pretty oblique attack on the problem, but it’s a lasting solution.
