Not so fast, so far... you haven't proven me wrong. You're talking about weblogs, not forums. Two different concepts.
Alldeaf is not a weblog. It's a forum. People has gotten fired for what they said on their weblogs, but at a forum?
An internet forum is not the same as a weblog. Many people don't fully identify themselves like they would on a weblog. There's also another flaw in using such an argument. Anybody can pretend to be me if they wanted to be. That's why it should be in the same category as tape recorders... because they can be easily manipulated. Actually, being an imposter on the Internet is even easier in comparison to using a tape recorder because they can get access to photo profiles and their details then use them to their advantages.
Heck, one could write down a detailed plan of how I plan to do something nasty and then commit the crime. That's a good way of framing someone. It's very easy to do such a thing.
It's a flawed argument, period.
