Are you really "you" online? We asked around for stories of digital alter egos — secret identities that people maintain on the web and try to keep separate from their real life identities. And it turns out there are lots of reasons — some good, some nefarious, some maybe both — to have an alternate persona online. On this episode we share stories of Catfishers, sock puppets, and digital doppelgangers.
