Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The concept of deindividuation refers to the loss of self-awareness and restraint that can occur when individuals are part of a group or when they feel anonymous. Ted's use of a bogus email address and lack of face-to-face interaction with those he is writing to contributes to a sense of physical anonymity, which can lead to less restrained and more aggressive behavior.
