Are you actually nice in real life and kind, but on the Internet are you only rude and mean and offensive? Because this is called G.I.F.T.
That being said, do you guys (not everyone of you, but a majority of many) who say the most rudest or sometimes offensive things online, would you also say these same things in real life, or not? |

Second question for you all.
Are you aware that what you can say nowadays online can be used against you? For instance if you say offensive things on social media or do offensive things there, you can get fired from a job, in trouble in school such as expulsion or suspension, denied a job opportunity, or if severe get in trouble with law authorities.
Are you aware that even though there are oversensitive people on the Internet, that some things can be said or taken way too far when you are on the Internet? |

| G.I.F.T. basically is where anyone online the Internet can think or do things that offensive, rude, mean, or plain outright evil and heartless on the Internet, while in actual r3@l (they hashed the word now) life a person wouldn't say or do such things. |

"Are you aware that what you can say nowadays online can be used against you? " Yes but I don't take it seriously unless they get rid of the anonymous veil

Actually anyone can get your IP Address easily. Not to mention since we are in a age where there is no privacy on the Internet, the law authorities can and will track your IP Address on any website you use. |

Not really because if you think that you can say things online and feel that there is no consequence for your actions on the Internet, then people in real life have the full right to fire you, suspend you, expel you, deny you a job application, or arrest you. Reason is pretty simple.
Even if your nice in real life, what you say on the Internet doesn't give you a free pass or a free card to be excused from anything bad you do online. It not people being wimps, it because people aren't going to accept that behavior both online and offline. |

@Coro
IRL name wouldn't matter you are correct. However if you happen to god forbid do something online that would get you into trouble with the law, then the authorities can still eventually find out who you are including by name. |

This is easily avoidable by using TOR. |

| TOR can give you a a safe haven for unlawful activity, but bear in mind that FBI have been very active at taking many illegal ######## on the Deep Web (or Dark Web as many consider separate since Deep Web isn't full of messed up things), reason is that ######## can be directly reported to law authorities and then the sites are shut down and people on them will get found eventually and arrested. Even if you use a ton of proxies or something where it makes your ## ####### randomized so nobody can tell what your real ## ####### ### the law authorities can still find ways to find you and track you down. I mean if they couldn't then ######## on the Dark Web, that are ########## known (not mentioning names due to the fact I don't want a warning or ban) for illegal activity would still be up and active. |
