quote [ Monika Glennon has lived in Huntsville, Alabama, for the last 12 years. Other than a strong Polish accent, she fits a certain stereotype of the All-American life. She’s blonde. Her husband is a veteran Marine. Her two children, a boy and a girl, joined the military as adults. She sells houses—she’s a real estate agent at Re/Max—helping others realize their own American dream.
But in September 2015, she was suddenly plunged into an American nightmare. ] Social media opinion + random asshole = years of harassment.

Another reason to stay off the FaceSpaces.

This is a good example of why the push to eliminate anonymity on the internet isn't such a great idea.

None of this would have happened if Batshit Woman hadn't been able to link Innocent Victim's perfectly reasonable Auschwitz comment to her career and personal life. BW would have had no choice but to do what she should've done anyway, shrug and move on.
(And let's not forget Guano Girl, who would have similarly been thwarted, and couldn't have objected since she was using a secret identity herself.) |

Ah, go it. Thank you.
Maybe there should be a push for mandatory anonymity. |

But the person who redistributed BW's slander used a fake identity, and probably wouldn't have otherwise.

That's Guano Girl, who would've similarly been stymied had IV's ID been unknown. Being a pseudonymous asshole is pretty harmless if everyone else you're interacting with is also anonymous. No doxxing or swatting, for instance.
