The concept of anon accounts, online slang for anonymous accounts, is my base to examine the phenomenon of online disinhibition.

The online disinhibition effect occurs because people feel a sense of anonymity and detachment when communicating online, especially when using an anon account. This can have both a positive and negative effect.
However, it is crucial to recognize that one's online actions can have real-life consequences, even if the interactions are virtual.
Aside from anonymity, several other factors can contribute to online disinhibition, such as the absence of real-time communication, reduced empathy, individual personality and cultural differences.

Therefore, it is essential to be mindful of our online interactions, regardless of the level of anonymity we perceive.
