Despite the fact that there is no backstage on the internet, the perceived anonymity it offers poses problems when people use that anonymity to attack others. In a new podcast, fittingly titled “Conversations with People who Hate Me,” Dylan Marron will converse with some of the people who have attacked him online. Similar to the messages delivered to commenters by Jay and Silent Bob in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back but with words instead of physical attacks, these confrontations let posters know that there are real people behind the personas on one’s screen. It will be interesting to see what kind of results these conversations have.
