You are so, so wrong here.

Who the hell gets to judge what is 'to be payed for' in this world you're talking about? The mob? No thanks!

In fact the internet actually went to shit the minute it pivoted from 'Dont share your personal info publicly' to 'please give us every last drop of your personal information and share it publicly'

Well clearly people that think like them will always be in control of things.

That’s the thing people don’t often consider - how will this policy/law/norm work when I’m not the one benefiting from it?

Those who demand the payment, obviously.

Denying the existence of the god or being gay could be something to be payed for in some places and obviously that is horrible thing but anonymity doesn't solve that.

Fighting for a change or leaving that place solves something. Alan Turing himself was subjected to these things in the United Kingdom. A few decades later things changed in the UK and had nothing to do with the anonymity.

Now those who think that gays deserve equal rights demand payment. Again, anonymity it's not helping the anti-gay folks but simply creates low quality discussion and stress and nothing more.

Yes, it literally does on the internet

What it solved exactly?

Stopped people getting doxxed, hunted down a lynched in countries where you're executed for being a homosexual, while still being able to communicate safely online with other people in the same situation?

How exactly does anonymity not solve that problem?
