would banning anonymous comments reduce cyberbullying


Cyberbullying is the harassment of computer users (often teens and preteens) through various forms of Internet communication. The behavior typically occurs via e-mail, instant messaging, and chat rooms.
The bullying may be in the form of threats, spreading of rumours or humiliation. And usually the perpetrators remain anonymous.Requests on anonymous comments in chat rooms were asked to be banned and true identity's should be provided. Problem is, anonymity and privacy are one of the rights we have as people.
Do you really think that this basic right should be enforced on this matter?? Because other matters are as a result infringed. Whats your on take??
