Is Anonymity Out of Fashion?

With the Facebooks and the Twitters and the whatnot, you are encouraged more than ever to use your real name. The mainstream face of the internet is no longer the wild wild west where people with names like LarryJuanaBlunt42 attack you from all sides with horrifically creative epithet combinations, involving races, sexuality, gender, religion and geographical region. Also, it seems as though people are no longer worried about The Lawnmower Man finding out where you live and molesting you. They should be. I am still out here. I will make all the phones in the world ring at the same time. The phones are my herald, my Silver Surfer. When all the phones ring, they are singing of the coming Torrential Molestation Wave that I shall bring.
What was I talking about?
