Steemit NO longer supports ANONYMITY...........
Steemit recently updated their Privacy Policy and this is what caught my attention.
I signed up on Steemit so I can be anonymous for many reasons. Steemit only required an email to sign up for an account on Steemit. Then they asked for a phone number for newer accounts. Now this major change on privacy.
One of the reasons, I need anonymity so that my life is not at risk for speaking the truth. I guess I can't do this on Steemit anymore.
Please share your opinion on these changes to Steemit.

I believe that for those willing to pay, there are still ways to open an anonymous steemit account.
Without identity verification people could open multitude of accounts for free.

hi @greenbeans
I never really had any doubts that anonymity will be taken away from steemit and every single social media out there sooner or later.
Thx for update
Piotr
hi @greenbeans
The problem is that informaitons about your IP and all your transactions on steemit are being stored and that's what many people will find as a threat
Cheers,
Piotr
