Chris Poole on our Digital Identities

    

In a passionate speech at the Web 2.0 Summit in San Francisco, Poole claimed that Internet users should have a choice as to whether they want to stay anonymous on the web or use their real identities. The argument comes as Facebook and Google push to remove anonymity from the web. “Google and Facebook would have you believe that you’re a mirror, but we’re actually more like diamonds,” Poole told the audience. “Look from a different angle, and you see something completely different… Facebook is consolidating identity by making us more simple than we truly are.”
