Not knowing how to map a digital identity to a meatspace identity is really not anonymity. It’s pseudonymity.
And pseudonymity is good! We should allow for lots more of it.
But anonymity is a different thing. It’s not clear to me that anonymity is worth trying to achieve, anymore; instead we should be fighting for judicial oversight of when pseudonymity can be pierced, combined with dramatically less anonymity for the misdeeds of the powerful.
