What is it about the Internet that makes people feel invincible?
People on the Internet always make themselves out to be something more than what they really are. Sometimes it even escalates to death threats and even challenges to fights but would never carry out those actions for the most part. Why do people feel like they are invincible on the Internet?

Superficial anonymity and self-esteem issues.

They view themselves as anonymous and therefore can hide behind a screen. To quote "Death Note" on the matter:
"Say in school, we have a discussion in class...there's no way the subject would be 'Is it all right to kill someone evil?' But let's say that was the subject. Everyone would act all virtuous and say 'No, it's wrong to kill anybody.' And of course, that would be the proper response. People need to maintain that kind of facade in public. But this is what they really think...But out on the anonymous Internet, 'Kira' rules. He's all over the place." |
