Recently there has been a big deal with the website Ask.Fm , an anonymous question asking site similar to formspring.
The recent fuss is about a girl who has committed suicide from the abusive messages.
There is reports that the site owners have the ability to reveal the names of the people sending these messages.
My question is , should they reveal the names?

No they shouldn't because when they commented they expected to stay anonymous and they should.

You have to put yourselves in the shoes of the parents of the girl who committed suicide , wouldn't you want some kind of justice?

It doesn't matter much if they should. They won't reveal any poster unless it's serious enough to warrant police action. So for those of you worried your anonymous love messages will be revealed, you will be fine
+ The girl that committed suicide posted the comments herself. They were all from the same IP. Either her or her family (freaky thought)

I personally think they should. Ask.fm ws not made for folk to be abused over. The fact that a girl commited suicide over it is dreadful & the folk who was asking the questions OR Saying what they were should be punished!
I personally quite like ask.fm. Its good to have a bit of fun asking silly questions but i don't think it should ever be used to send abusive anonymous messages to folk. Just makes the people doing it total cowards!
Hit me with criticism if you want. I can take it!

I think they really should. It'd teach whoever is doing it a lesson. I don't comment on any of them incase they do actually reveal the anons of Ask.fm.

You shouldn't use the site if you're that sensitive to others remarks online. If you feel as you're getting harassed or bullied. Just don't use the site.

Yes and No.
Yes because It will show what sort of people they are and they will get what they deserve.
No because If they are revealed, the chances are that people will attempt to either kill them or do something really bad, and like Rockstar-Games said, they expect to be anonymous so should remain anonymous.
But at the end of the day, nothing is worth killing yourself over, the girl should of just Ignored them..

I think they should. Kids like the "trolls" that pushed this girl to commit suicide would not do that to ANYONE if their messages wasn't anonymous. They think they can do it to anyone because they're masked. If you expose them, then they won't do it.
