Anonymous bloggers who misbehave cannot hide behind their cloaks
How anonymous can you be in the blogosphere?
Well, a judge in the UK has told a site to reveal the names of abusive bloggers, and commenters.
I wonder whether this will make some of these people think twice.
I remember the howls of protest, which I understand.
I have my views on anonymous and non anonymous escort blogs.
Compartments has a great new post for anonymous escort bloggers, which gives you all the information you need to hide.
Have a good week.

Anonymous and Non Anonymous Escort Blogs
Peridot Ash inspired this post by saying that I dare to blog attached to my escort identity here.
I found her remark funny, and I think I understand what she is saying. I am sure Peridot Ash will come in and correct me, if I have misunderstood her.
As you know I started blogging at the end of October last year. It was not something that I had given much thought to. I have a side to my personality that is impulsive. I decided that I would give it a go one day, and did. I had no idea how many escort blogs existed.
After I took the initial step, I started to read a number of escort blogs, most of which were anonymous. I picked up that most anonymous escort bloggers, felt that if you were not anonymous, you were advertising, plain and simple.
Now I must be thick. When I started blogging, or whenever I come up with a post, I do not think, " I have to advertise my ass, while I am doing this."
I just write what is on my mind, what moves me, puzzles me, saddens me, amuses me, or pisses me off. Yes, my blog is attached to my site, but the intention was not to write the blog, to bring in clients. It was to express myself, and have a conversation with my readers.
I never considered blogging anonymously, because I have to confess, I do not want anyone to question that I am not the person writing the blog ie, I could be a man.
I have had feedback from some individuals who believe that my blog will filter my clients. Again, this was not my intention, but I can see how that could be possible.
I also wonder whether there is a feeling of contempt from anonymous escort bloggers, towards non anonymous escort bloggers; because they feel the latter cannot and do not tell the truth about their experiences.
I have read blogs that I believe are purely about advertising, where escorts have different photos of themselves, in every post,. Most of these bloggers never mention any encounters with their clients, and the content is all positive.It could be true.
This is where I agree with Peridot Ash. The content is watered down in these blogs. I get the impression that Peridot Ash feels I say a bit too much for an escort who is not anonymous.
I write how I see things, and if that prevents some clients from booking me, so be it.
I think it is similar to some of the issues raised in the reviews post.
We can get so caught up thinking that everyone reads our blogs, when it is only a minority of people who do.Most of the people who do are bloggers. The number of people who read my professional site, far outweigh the numbers who read my blog.
We all know how difficult it is to get clients to read our rates, and the text on our professional sites, right?
Given the large numbers of calls we receive from men who cannot take in what is written on our professional sites; how the hell do we expect them to make the leap and read our blogs?????
You tell me?
I read Peridot Ash and Mercurial Girl's blogs daily, and enjoy them. I accept that when you blog anonymously you have a certain level of freedom. You can write with reckless abandon if you wish, and noone knows who you are, and how to find you.It is a safer option, however some anonymous bloggers have been tracked down, and some have felt they need to change their blogs to invitation only. I feel the snoops have more motivation towards anonymous bloggers, the sense of gratification is greater.
Here is Mercurial girl's view on non anonymous bloggers.
Clearly, escort bloggers write what they want to write and how they want to write it.
The escort blogs that I enjoy most are anonymous.
I suppose I do not fit the profile of the sterotypical non anonymous blogger, or maybe I do.
You tell me?
Have a good weekend!
