This perhaps, is some rose colored glasses.
I remember friends getting harassed online, where it was one of the few places they could be themselves (for instance, a good friend of mine was openly gay online well before he was in person) and the internet seemingly didn't take kindly to this in alot of corners (gaming for starters)
That said, they were able to find some community that didn't exist the same locally, so the vastness is the upside here in that respect.
