Pros & Cons towards Anonymity

We've been talking about trolling for a while now and to be frank with you, it's starting to bore me. I think there's an equal amount of pros and cons to each side. Each side has their own argument/standpoint. I'm just gonna list some myself. I think some pros to be anonymous is that you can literally write anything you want. You can be free and work with the people that have the same opinion as you. On the other hand, the cons may consist of people abusing the power of being anonymous. Trolling people to the extent of hurting them knowingly. In the article, "What Happened When I Confronted My Cruellest Troll" , Lindy West tells us that her trolls made her quit a social media app and really got her off guard. I think what she went through shouldn't of happened. Although people go through many rude trollers, I think we should still have anonymity because it kinda lifts something of our hearts. In conclusion, anonymity should go on, but I believe it should be essential to stop the crazy trollers that gang up on someone til the fact that the individual will drop. I think they should be arrested or something.
