“…Consistent with the hypothesis of this study, the present study found that network anonymity had a significant negative effect on adolescents’ cyberbullying behavior, which is a novelty of the present study and could be supported by a few previous studies. For example, Lee and Sanchez found that when anonymity was high, students were less likely to engage in cyberbullying [ 30 ]. In other words, with the reduction in personal information exposure on the Internet, students will experience a reduction in the likelihood of cyberbullying behavior.…”

Cyberbullying is an important issue which prevails among children and adolescents. The present study aimed to investigate the association between network anonymity and cyberbullying behavior and examine the mediating role of network morality and the moderating role of self-control in the linkage of network anonymity and cyberbullying behavior. A total of 620 participants were recruited from three high schools in southeast China and were required to complete a questionnaire measuring network anonymity, cyberbullying behavior, network morality, and self-control. A moderated mediation model was conducted by using PROCESS Macro for SPSS 3.5. The results showed that network anonymity was negatively associated with cyberbullying behavior among Chinese adolescents. Network morality mediated the association and self-control moderated the indirect association between network anonymity and cyberbullying behavior via network morality. These findings indicate that improving the network morality and self-control of adolescents with the joint efforts of individuals, families, government, and society as a whole may be an effective intervention strategy for cyberbullying behavior under the framework of digital citizens.

“…Hololive Vtubers must face the viewers every time and they have always to be careful not to make mistakes in showing their true identities. Therefore, being anonymous is always a process to be reviewed and lived every day (Asenbaum, 2018;Lee & Sanchez, 2018). The streamers also have to embrace tensions between themselves and the viewers.…”

“…Viewers also require certain gender that is real and rigid but the Vtubers choose to remain flexible in its identities. Its idea is to go out from any rigidity into freedom of showing what the streamers could do worldwide (Lee & Sanchez, 2018;Wright, 2013). The above tensions will always come along in matter of Hololive Vtubers's language of anonymity.…”

Hololive Production is a virtual YouTuber agency which accommodates 71 active talents (VTubers) with 65 million subscribers on YouTube. Hololive protects its talents’ privacy by giving them unreal names and avatars. Some viewers intend to find real identities of the talents, some others ignore the real personalities, while many of them keep secret although they know the real person behind the unreal avatar. Then, how is cyber gender anonymity characterized on the privacy of Hololive Virtual Youtubers? Using qualitative method, this article indicates necessity of cyber gender anonymity to keep Hololive’s talents’ identities safe. This is supported by Judith Butler’s posture of gender and Philip Zimbardo’s deindividuation. Unreal characters and names for VTubers are for anonymities but some viewers are doxing and making fun of them. Viewers want the streamers to be open and clear, but Hololive VTubers want to be anonymous and opaque. That idea contradicts sexual differences and gender anonymities that include tensions of being rigid and flexible. In conclusion, Hololive does not live static condition, but moves through ambiguous avatar of cyber anonymity. Anonymity could always be endangered; laws protect them but attacks to psychological condition is inevitable.
