One interesting observation, relevant to recent discussions about anonymous blogging, occurs at about the 29 minute mark, when the screen displays two solutions to the same equation:
anonymity + physical distance + rare & ephemeral dialogue
= hatred as public performance
= freedom to experience humanity without fear or anxiety
John, yes indeed I did notice that. I am know very well how obnoxious can people get on the internet, it is enough to see the comments section of basically any YouTube video. Still, I think that to assume that anonymity will *necessarily* create hate-fueled morons is excessively pessimistic.
