<div>Just a clarification-</div>
<div>Facebook absolutely agrees that there should be spaces on the Internet where people can share anonymously, including some of our own properties, like Instagram. That said, Facebook itself is a space where community and trust depend upon people being able
to connect with people they know, so Facebook community standards require people to use names they are known to use in "real" life. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We do not proactively moderate for this, but fake accounts are definitely taken down if and when they are reported to us, and we include mechanisms for reporting fake names or accounts directly in the platform so that anyone on Facebook, whether or not
the reporting person has an account, can report.</div>

<span>Given that blogging in Kenya is taken to mean anyone with a social media account expressing their opinions, I think it's a slippery slope. Facebook tried to enforce a real name policy, I believe so did Google, and that didn't bode well.

<span>While I see why the government would want to take that approach (and could be argued with s 33(2)..), it is worrisome. And "clamping down" is a militant choice of words...</span><br>
