Social media users should be verified with real ID, IT professionals say

Lisa Miles
A majority of IT professionals have said social media should require users to verify their identities, in order to combat anonymous racism, homophobia and other abuse online.

But would you stop using social media altogether if you had to verify your identity and couldn't be anonymous in any shape or form?

    Indeed - one has to ask why do they need to know ? I routinely refuse to give my Email to shop assistants as that is not  for my benefit at all.

     

    I wholeheartedly agree Mike. They ask you if you want your receipt emailed to you (disguised as environmentally friendly reasons) when really they're asking you for your email address so they can pop you on their marketing mailing list!
