I'm a proponent of creators of content having the ability to remain anonymous.
I've gone up against Facebook's "Real Name policy" re: anonymity and I've championed others in that very fight. If a day comes when I can't be LS, it'll be by choice, not by force. I'll be the one to slay my dragon.
"Your real name is a mortal name. Now you need one that is immortal, the one that takes the high stage and plays above the rest. You can't be immortal and mortal at the same time."
-Keith Buckley
“The Rule of Names,” a schoolteacher reminds her class, “You never ask anybody his name. You never tell your own.” The true name is sacred; its revelation is emblematic of deep trust. Words thwart and create equilibrium. Language is linked to power.
Ursula Le Guin
"Rabbit is wise, Rabbit is good"
-Twister
@InvaderGzim @White_Rabbit If I would have been aware of the Le Guin or Buckley quote back in early 2105, I would have included them in the post I did when I got caught up in the Facebook "real name" policy. There are a couple areas I could have inserted those quotes in to.

Gotta thank @White_Rabbit for pointing me there a while ago...
