What is the anonymous posting feature of Facebook?
As it can be estimated through the name, this mind-blowing feature (introduced in 2020) allows admin groups to do posting without revealing their identities. Even their identities are hidden from the group members. Yes, they are totally strangers in the comments sections. However, their identity will be visible to the group admins, moderators, and Facebook itself to enforce its community standards.
If you are thinking, will your identity be visual to the other group members too? Of course, you will be shown them as group members.
Why do people want to post anonymously?
According to the short survey, the main reason behind anonymously posting is that people feel more comfortable, confident, and safer while working hiddenly, especially if the group is public. That’s why Facebook introduced this feature so more people can benefit from it.
During a group discussion in a workshop, Peter, a medical student at Nottingham, the University of England, told us his opinion on why he wants to work anonymously on his Facebook page. He told us that his page is about a relationship where he discusses all the guidelines and tricks to make your relationship ongoing. Predominantly he advises on his experience with his partner. If she comes to know about that page, he doesn’t want to face her reaction even if it’s not wrong, but he thinks hiddenly, I can express my feelings and opinion well.
It proves that anonymous posting has made people more robust, confident, and opinionative, necessary to strengthen any nation’s development.
