External entities, such as governments and commercial industries, that \u2018invade\u2019 people\u2019s rights to be left alone are of less concern now than individuals who voluntarily give up their privacy by willingly providing personal information for other benefits on the internet. Also, in the interactive environment, intended and unintended activities of more diversified and less easily identifiable entities have become more of a threat to individual privacy. In this new environment, rather than \u2018providing\u2019 privacy for passive individuals, a more user-oriented, active approach is needed to help users to protect themselves from more diversified and unknown forces and potential loss of control. This article suggests that focusing on the right not to be identified on the network by allowing affirmative acts of secrecy and deception regarding identity and identification might be the most effective-and sometimes only practically viable-way of ensuring privacy in the interactive environment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1461444806069650","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,11,13]],"date-time":"2006-11-13T14:06:49Z","timestamp":1163426809000},"page":"949-967","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":60,"title":["The right not to be identified: privacy and anonymity in the interactive                 media environment"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Jisuk","family":"Woo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Seoul National University, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7551\/mitpress\/6682.001.0001"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7591\/9781501741128"},{"key":"atypb3","first-page":"745","volume":"60","author":"Bell, B.","year":"1999","journal-title":"University of Pittsburgh Law Review"},{"key":"atypb4","first-page":"1","volume":"24","author":"Byford, K.
