Abstract
The Internet might never have developed into a free and open forum in the US countries and many other democracies if users weren't guaranteed at least some level of anonymity. However, under the current legal framework used by most courts, that anonymity is elusive for many types of online behavior. California's new approach to anonymity recognizes the longstanding need for privacy that's fundamental to online life. Courts in the US and other nations can and should learn from California's approach and recognize anonymity as a fundamental right to privacy.
