What is Your Real Name?
- shareme 16y agoNO Steve Gillmor the biggest problem you have right now is refusing to enter the conversation because you are to afraid of comments coming from those who do not use their real name. No matter what the name, our country forefathers posted under fake names in newspapers to talk about the cause of freedom..every movement, cause world wide uses this strategy. So Steve Gillmor join the human race! You might like it..
- TomOfTTB 16y agoJust to give him credit up front this is more coherent than 99% of the stuff he posts. So kudos on that front. But it doesn't seem to have a point beyond "I hate anonymous people because they pick on me". As far as that goes I like anonymity. An anonymous person can give you the unvarnished truth without fear of reprisal and as someone who values that truth I'm willing to put up with a few trolls to gain access to it. But maybe that's just me.
- rhizome 16y agoThing is, once it becomes coherent you realize it's still only about him.
- Kilimanjaro 16y agoYou know, sometimes it takes a day or two to forget some stupid thing you did on the internets. People will move on to the silliest thing of the day and soon you never existed for them. Why gillmor decides to bring back this total embarrasment is out of my understanding. Let it die, steve, let it die.

- rhizome 16y agoI just read the article and it's all pretty frothy and baseless. Are you saying there's story behind this rant?
- MaysonL 16y agoCompare and contrast this attack on anonymity with Glenn Greenwald's: http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/index.html?story=/opinion/greenwald/2011/02/27/hastings http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/index.html...
- ErrantX 16y agoWhat exactly is the context on this? Am I right in gathering he did something silly and people are attacking for it? Welcome to the internet....
