We all want privacy on the Internet, but does that include a right to anonymity? Charlotte Henry discusses the fallout around the revealing of the identities of the Bored Ape Yacht Club by Buzzfeed, and the journalistic considerations involved. We cover not only the responsibilities of the journalist, but also of her site, and the retributions against both after the story ran. (Part 2)
