- What are some of the main differences in the way these texts define the problem?
Some of these texts like “Who Are These Haters That Poison the Well of Our Discourse” by Andrew Stafford define the problem of trolling on the Internet as something really bad that can be prevented with time, money, and human resources. All in all most of these texts define and acknowledge that because users are allowed to stay anonymous that it is a huge problem and a really bad thing because people once someone is anonymous you cannot do anything to defend your self against them because there will most likely be more than one person attacking you.
2. What are some of the main differences in their claims about what causes the problem?
Some texts say that because users of the internet now have the the ability to remain anonymous that it drive these ‘bullies’ to post these mean things online because they know that no one will ever know who said that. Others blame the internet at as a whole and others blame the social medias that allow for ‘trolls’ to post derogatory things on these websites.
3. What are some of the main differences in their claims about what should be done to solve the problem?
In the text “Real Names” Policies Are an Abuse of Power by Danah Boyd claim that the social medias play a huge role in providing some safety for their users. She believes that they should do something to prevent users from receiving hate. In the text “Where Anonymity Breeds Contempt.” by Julie Zhuo she states that they law should do something to “disrarm these Internet trolls” but if they cannot do anything about it then the content providers and social networking problems should change their websites so that anonymity is not allowed on their platforms.
