The largest thing that concerns me about Musk and Twitter right now is that he's said multiple times that he wants to verify the identity of every human on there as a way to kill the bots. Free speech on social media isn't necessarily a good thing when it's directly tied to your full name. If journos have been able to consistently destroy lives on anon accounts by doxing them, imagine what would happen when the doxing is already done for you.

Why not?

Good way to get fired from a job if you express an opinion that goes against the grain.

Google tried that with Google Plus.

Look where it ended.

Anonymity protects many from prosecution and persecution. It isn't evil, it's a tool.
