Anonymity is no longer guaranteed after a woman who feared for her safety successfully sued Google to release the identity of a person who’d posted derogatory comments referencing her online. Yea! Asked why she fought so hard to find out who was tormenting her, Liskula Cohen said: “Why would anybody let it go?
