How does anonymity affect user ratings?

Anonymity can lead to more honest feedback, but it may also encourage negative behavior. What are your thoughts?

Do you think people are more honest when they can remain anonymous?

Yes, many studies suggest that anonymity can reduce social pressure, leading to more candid responses.
