Topic: why people scare to show their identity if they are doing legal (Read 3224 times)
Some people don't like the fact that everyone in the world knows exactly what they've purchased. I mean, maybe I don't want someone to know what kind of music I listen to, what medications I need to take, etc. There are legit reasons.

I have a question that why people scare to show their identity if they are doing legal? Why people do not use real identity??? It makes here a more trustable market!!
A real name identifier in internet is not at all times connected to the real human being currently present at the machine.
How can one be sure that "John Travolta" in the forum is the real "John Travolta" ?
An account (such as virtualx) may be used by anywhere from one person to a large group of persons.
A person may not be involved with an account at all (a Turing machine).
This is the case in both real name system and pseudonym systems.
Thus, sadly the "more trustable market" is a false conclusion.

There's a thing called privacy, i think Op don't understand the concept of it.

because all people are concern about their own privacy.
another thing most people cared about is safety,what if some bad guys use your public info to do some illegal things ?

Anyway, I know this has already been mentioned, but I'm sick of hearing about cases where some hacker made off with millions of credit card numbers because he got into the systems of a major retailer. That won't happen so much when you use Bitcoin.
I am not so sure. Major exchanges like bitstamp has collected lots of personal info such as your bank accounts, driver licenses, home addresses, etc. If bitstamp doesn't store it right with encryption and is hacked, all those info will be in the hands of hackers.

It's because we all have a right to privacy, too much of our private lives are already given out to governments and corporations.
Don't think we should associate being anonymous with illegal activity

It's not so much that I'm afraid to show my identity as I'd rather just be able to do business without complicating things by having a lot of third parties involved. I'd like to sell a few of these sorta-cute stun guns that support breast cancer research to people who live in areas where it's legal to carry one, for instance.

CryptoCurrency is anonymous, so does the seller want to be. Anonymous.

Well, it's not a question of doing legal or illegal stuff, it's merely a question whether you think it's anybody's business what you're doing! That's called freedom! Also, if you're giving away your personal data, they may get stolen. People are fed up with that happening!

1. Many enjoy privacy. You don't want your ID misused or leaked.
2. It is not see to verify if the others are using real identities, and if they are, it only makes the market slightly more trustable.

It is because some ppl don't want others know they have business and they are rich.
Being rich is good, while at the same time causes a lot of trouble

Why people hate to come under the sun while they know it's not gonna kill them?The answer lies within,they doesn't wanna get exposed directly until needed. August 26, 2014, 10:49:24 AM
Nothing's completely anonymous, you know. Except probably Satoshi Nakamoto's real identity. 
He's absolutely not completely anonymous, although the authorities who possibly knows who it is has no use of that information.

there is no require to use your real identity unless required even though you are going legally.I believe most people over internet doesn't give out there real info unless required.Privacy is a prior thing over internet and there are many identity thieves as well of whom we should be aware of

Some folks just value financial anonymity
A preference for anonymity is by no means an admission to guilt or wrongdoing of any kind

people have a right to keep their identity to there selves if they are speaking to people on the internet they don't know or trust.
