Should people have an alternate identity online? Should we behave online the same way we interact with people offline? If we are online, are we responsible for our own actions and behaviors?


 Well, personally, I wouldn’t have an alternate identity because I cant juggle two personalities. I’m not against it though. Its ok to make an alternate identity because there might be stalkers and pedophiles out there, who search and prey on kids like us. Alternate identities would secure us from them just a bit.
         I think that we should behave the same online and offline. That is because your offline life may interfere with your online life and vice versa. Two different personalities may be hard to manage for an average person, so to keep it simple, it will be better if you just act the same online and offline.
         Yes, we are responsible for our actions online. If we cyberbully a peer to a point where he gets suicidal, then we should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Cyberbullying should be stopped by banning people from they’re internet rights.
