>assuming a false identity
Whose identity is being faked?
I always grew up with the assumption that everything on the internet is most likely fake.
That girl you're talking to? Probably a dude. The Nigerian prince asking for money. Probably a scammer.
Unless it's a government website with secure ID login, every account you see online is probably fake.
- _vertigo 9mo agoIf you invent a person and assume their identity, that's still a false identity. > I always grew up with the assumption that everything on the internet is most likely fake. How you interact with the internet is not really relevant to the discussion. The average person does not interact with the internet in the same way that people on this forum do, so that should not be the yardstick by which we judge this.
