Yes, and my obsession is with transparency and accountability. I think anonymity is a pimple on the butt of the Web. “I’ll admit this is a particular obsession of mine, but anonymous speech is important and necessary for the freedom of speech to be a real thing.” Yes, and my obsession is with transparency and accountability.

I am not a fan of anon posting in general. I am considering shooting something debate related this weekend. If anons have important questions, perhaps they could post them here and have their voices heard. I also might gain new insights into the organization from the feedback. BTW - More videos, more ideas. I hope at least a few ALA members pick up a video camera before the deadline. If non-members are interested, that's great too! ALA MidWinter is off my radar this year.

But that's ok, we can disagree. See you at Midwinter. :-) Well, we’re going to have to disagree on this — not on the value of free speech, but on this specific example.

I won't disagree that anonymity + internet = asshat. But to paraphrase, I may not like what you say, and I may even think that it is wrong to say it, but I will defend your right to say it. Even the asshats on the web. And I think that anonymity is a necessary evil if we are to allow for the ability to say what you want.
