even if we consider anonymously posting a cowardice act (when done by a person who is afraid that his bosses will know he uses their computer time, and not because he should be afraid of opinions, because opinions weren't posted yet), it's not the cowardice act that could render opinions worthless, it's just the fact that opinions are inevitably linked with the person expressing them, so doing so anonymously inevitable makes an opinion become not an opinion but an empty expression.
