Being anonymous online might not be such a bad thing as it may seem;
At least when holding good intentions. First hand, I have been anonymous online and it has done me well. As a queer woman I've had my fair share of anon research and deep digging. When a teen is dealing with their sexuality they are very much likely to take to the web due to the feeling of isolation and the flood of query they may have. The internet provides us with a platform like no other, with a click of a button we are transported to a world of communication and possible like mindedness. Now not everyone may be ready to be so openly vocal with their ideas, but that does not mean they should not participate. Going anon provides people with the ability to speak their minds and take part in the excitment without having to fully commit to it.
