Anonymity subjected to be abused to troll and cause harm to others is not worth giving.

If you feel not safe to do whistleblowing, social media is not the place to do it. There are more safer direct channels.

What you suggested is the reason why China only allow local Chinese registered phone numbers to create Douyin accounts. The impressive result is that "anonymous" troll fake news is reduced to almost none.

You tell a lie to public big time next day not just the police will be hunting you, when you walk out on the streets everyone will come after you.

Funny to see you justified the restrictions in China just because there are trolls and fake news elsewhere in the world

There's only one narrative allowed in China, people have limited freedom of expression and would get penalized even when they are posting truths but not aligned with the sentiments that CCP wants to portray

Meanwhile elsewhere in the world, we can have PN or PH cytros commenting and bashing in socmeds, each delivering their own narratives, you can say those accusing DAP as communists as fake accounts, but truth to be told that it is kinda sentiment in rural Malay community, likewise for Nons that typically label PAS as Talibans, so to each of their own, this is the norm in democracy
