> If that day comes, I'll might celebrate, because YouTube comments are mostly worthless, full of sexism, racism, insults, and sheer idiocy. I rarely come across a YouTube comment that imparted useful information. One could argue two ways here. On one hand I think it's actually interesting and instructive to read comments from anonymous sources - what people "really" think, without the filter of being tied to their real identity. On the other hand, there are countless examples of people proudly posting/tweeting/etc horribly sexist, racist, insulting, and idiotic things under their real names along with a profile picture of themselves, so it's not so clear that removing anonymity will transform the comments section into a particularly erudite and informative place.
