Anonymity is another.

Privacy is being secure in your files, your thoughts, your private and group conversations.

Anonymity gives you safety to share your findings. Whether that’s whistleblowing or ideas or results, having your real identity attached may be more risk than it’s worth. Why do we need both?

Since these are separate things, it makes sense for Anonymity to have its own sub.

    You make a great point about anonymity. And something I didnt really think about. We should be concious about whether to use anonymity or privacy.

    Im not sure whether it’s a good idea to create a community for anonymity alone, because that would divide the community. However perhaps creating a community that encapsulates both. With a name that reflects this and encourages members to be concious about this distinction.

      The idea came from a privacy guide which said not to use Tor Browser.

      Tor Browser: it’s a browser made for anonimity, not privacy
