Social media controversies are one use case. We've all heard about the effects of 'cancel culture' and deplatforming, and people going after your livelihood because you said something seen as 'offensive' or politically controversial online. If you're a very proponent/opponent of something like Brexit, agree with James Damore, think identity politics is bullshit, vocally support the Trump administration/are republican or are involved in some sort of internet controversy, there's definitely a strong middle class use case for anonymity. Makes it so your opponents can't go after your employmeny, friends, relationships, etc.
