Freedom is one of the fundamental conditions for human happiness. Freedom of speech increases self-reliance and helps to introduce oneself. Freedom of speech is incomprehensible to me without respect towards the others, their opinion or even their weirdness.
Personally I try to be the way I feel at that very moment: if I am angry I am angry, if I am sad I am sad, if I want to be alone I ask others to leave me alone. Open people are stronger that people-chameleons.

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom to insult, freedom to disrespect others. The more anonymity and possibilities to insult and offend others we get, the more restricted our freedom to be honorable and freedom of self-realization is.

I tend to think, that anonymity should be respected, because there are organizations in Lithuania that act based on principle of anonymity. Everything depends on how a citizen perceives anonymity.

Writing comments ethically means not only respect for others – it is also self-respect. It is a pity, that such a good way to share opinions, space for dialogues in internet news portals sometimes becomes space for slinging mud and palaver.
