Why do you like going anonymous?

[You]

What draws you to the freedom of anonymity, and how do you balance the desire for privacy with the need for self-expression and connection in a increasingly digital and public world?

 

[Shavkat]

For safety reason, this is what runs into my mind when it comes to this concern.

 

[Springtime]

I go anonymous to protect my privacy and for security reasons. There are all sorts of people in the digital world. You never know what they will do if your real identity is revealed.

 

[Sanjeev]

Maybe because I don't want to reveal my identity as there may be few persons on the site which may know me offline.

I just enjoy my privacy and it should continue that way. it is an individual thing though. Some people don't like it

 

[Etini Willie]

The world is wicked and you could easily be linked to a scandal if you don't keep your identity anonymous especially online.

I am not an anonymous person, anyone can track me, if they actually try. However, I do not like sharing personal information

 

[freelancermaria]

Sometimes, I choose to go incognito because of privacy concerns. Unfortunately, some individuals will stop at nothing to intrude on your personal life, deceive you, and so on.

 

[eldavis]

I prefer keeping certain private things to myself, am the type of person who is always mindful of who I let in.

People online are not to be trusted. They can easily take your identity to use in illegal activities that might implicate you.

I love to have my space and observe things without making people uncomfortable. That's why I go anonymous online sometimes.
