That's not always the case.
I was reminded earlier today of where I got my wild ideas about anonymous communication.
http://www.chillingeffects.org/johndoe/faq.cgi#QID17Now, I don't have any legal obligation to protect the right to anon speech for anyone but myself. I do it because I think it's in my own and my progeny's best interest, to coin a familiar, though noxious phrase.
Did you guys do a little doublespeak in your head to handle that one? I did. Constantly. While the rap that would keep me from getting bruised came out of my mouth, the other side replayed in my head.
"Get Out Of Your Head!" Think about
that request for just a moment. I had a built in fire alarm that screamed back "No, Mother Fucker,
You get out of
my head!" (emphasis in the original)
It is one of the most beautiful compensations of life, that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
