Freedom of Speech through AnonymousA new era has developed and society is changing to adapt to new forms of technological communication. Through the use of the vast Internet through the use of social networks, picture boards, blog sites and news media, society is changing in a way never seen before. Over the past two decades, Internet use has expanded and grown exponentially with the development of new technologies. Since the introduction of social networks and alternative news sites, the way people interact and communicate has changed. New ideas and discussions were created. With all this freedom granted with easy access, society could benefit from the ability to speak freely as an anonymous source. Personal obsession with images is lost because Internet users judge by pseudonym and nothing more. The ability to have an alternate personality allows users freedom of speech and thought never before granted and can be deleted and created with just a few clicks. We see that true opinions and reasoning within society vary based on the anonymity of the commentator, where one is more likely to be more holistic and honest if one's images are not entirely threatened by the judgment of one's peers, but because of many networking sites, individualism is lost; in particular, society's lack of expression of truly free thinking and actually due to social constraints. Throughout history, we have proven time and time again that society has a natural inclination towards an obsession with image, and in more recent years it seems to have become a greater factor in our daily lives. We constantly alter our personalities and physical characteristics, including the products we purchase. What is… middle of paper… the concern of social limitations is not quite there. Twitter provokes ignorance of social standards and the previous obsession with image to allow for greater ideological development, without becoming too foreign. Because 4chan and other anonymous sources can be considered sites that follow a more severe and extremist pattern that results in more primitive thinking. due to the lack of restrictions. We can safely assume that since Facebook has elaborated the creation of social standards and the rise of personal image insecurity, it follows the Freudian model and can be seen as the SUPEREGO due to the restriction of sexual desires and focuses on the whole image improvement without showing free thought or opposition to society. Thus leaving to Twitter, strictly according to the EGO principle, the decision between social image and free thought.
