Haley Calls for End to Anonymous Social Media Accounts
The Epoch Times ^ | 11/14/23 | By Nathan Worcester

Posted on 11/14/2023 2:30:57 PM PST by CFW

Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley called for an end to anonymity on social media during a television appearance on Nov. 14.

“Every person on social media should be verified by their name,” the 2024 presidential hopeful said while fielding questions from voters on Fox News’s “The Faulkner Focus,” hosted by Harris Faulkner.

“First of all, it’s a national security threat. When you do that, all of a sudden, people have to stand by what they say. And it gets rid of the Russian bots, the Iranian bots, and the Chinese bots. And then you’re going to get some civility, when people know their name is next to what they say, and they know their pastor and their family members [are] going to see it, it’s going to help our kids, and it’s going to help our country.” Ms. Haley said.

Ms. Haley made the comment in a response to a question from a woman identified as “Stephanie R, Democratic Voter Switching to GOP.”

“There is no such thing as true anonymity on any social media site.
Your IP address CAN be tracked to your house, even through a VPN.”


That is so true. If someone has the right tools and access to the correct information, they can track down anyone posting anonymously. Do you think the FBI/CIA can’t find out the true names (and everything else) about anyone here on FR?
Of course they can!

Not that we didn’t know what she stands for but now it is out in the open. Never Haley! She needs to be flushed out as Deep State stooge.

I’m not going to vote for Nikki Haley, period!

First she wants to import Palestinians into the USA, and now she wants to ban anonymous comment on the internet.

The Federalist Papers were published under the pseudonym “Publius” by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay.

“Well, isn’t Ms. Haley the little authoritarian?!!?”

She’s Indian. They’re Socialists and communists.

Agreed, as long as you give everyone your address and your schedule each day and where you will be each moment of each day, haley.

“ Does that include all of us on Free Republic????”

The globalists, neocons and DemocRATS would certainly like that.

Haley was born Nimrata Nikki Randhawa to Punjabi Sikh parents who emigrated from India in the 1960s.

This is why we need not pay any attention to her. She is no more American than Kamala.

Why import these families who have no American values. What is wrong with free speech and anonymity??

I’m sure they can find us. I wonder sometimes about the future of Free Republic. Will the powers that be ever terminate this site and others like it? Will we ever lose the freedom of speech which this site depends on to exist?

Perhaps Ms. Haley is unaware of the potential for misuse of folks’ identities, doxing, and other mischief?

This is the foreign beotch that started the demonization and destruction of our past civil war history and culture. She shouldn’t even be in the country, let alone running for POTUS. Hell will freeze over solid with 5’ of ice before this child would ever pull the vote lever for her....she can go ESAD. And that goes for the rest of those DS UniParty POSs as well..
