  What tools are we giving them?

    The post is about giving everyone the ability to see how everyone else votes on individual posts/comments. For instance if you downvoted this I would be able to look it up somehow and see it was you as opposed to it being anonymous. I don’t care if I get downvoted but there’s a lot of wackjobs on the internet who might use that as a reason to harass someone.

      Then block them. You think this is suddenly going to be a daily occurrence or something?

        No I don’t but there’s no reason to give them the option at all. There’s no positives to votes being public.
