Pretty misleading.

The whole point of your experiment was to see how people would act if completely anonymous, right? They aren't. So your experiment is flawed.




I can't reply to you so I'm replying to myself.

I honestly thought you were going for full anonymity. In fact, my first thought was that you were taking it a step further than 4chan and that it would be interesting to watch.


They're anonymous in the context of the conversation. Anytime you visit a website, you know your IP is being logged.


Seeing as how there aren't terms of service maybe YOUR flawed. It's a web app that never guaranteed your privacy.


"oak is an experiment. what will people act like if they are truly anonymous?" His words.

Note that I'm not "mad." I only pointed out that it was misleading.
