Another example is comments on blogs or forums made without any name, such as the Anonymous Coward posts on Slashdot and other Slashcode-based sites. It is often difficult to tell whether any one given anonymous contribution is made by the same physical person as another anonymous contribution, especially in the case of an IP address being assigned to multiple people (especially in the case of a large organization, a proxy, or an internet service provider/mobile provider pool), or a single person making contributions from multiple IP addresses (from multiple assigned IPs at home over time, from work, through proxies, on mobile devices or from public internet access points). Compare Pseudonymity, which means using a name different from that which you usually use, such as when using a nickname or online username.
