Ward Cunningham, the creator of the first wiki, said: The best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question. It’s to post the wrong answer.
If you constantly express anger in your private conversations, your friends will likely find you tiresome, but when there’s an audience, the payoffs are different; outrage can boost status.
The internet promotes the same dynamic as road rage: once you’re arguing with a computer (or vehicle) rather than a person, social norms tend to vanish.
