Online Integrity
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- exposing a sock puppet: violation of OI?
- In general, while there is nothing inherently wrong with using a “sock puppet”, it betrays a lack of confidence in your own arguments to carry the day (by manufacturing a legion of supporters to lend your own arguments weight). Most sock puppets tend to arise in the blogsphere as character witnesses, defending alleged and perceived slights and insults. Exposing these - usually via the tracing of IP addresses, which can be easily viewed by those who run blogs on Wordpress and Typepad - is not a violation of privacy that falls under the Statement of Principles of the Online Integrity project.
