Online space can be 'safe'?

This article provides an interesting point about 'safety' on the internet. Online flirting, cybersex, sexting (texting sex messages) can in a sense be 'safe', particularly due to the anonymity factor.....see how it is argued in the first column of the article. There's also of course the assurance that you would not contract aids or other STDs. Note though that this point can be rebutted......The guy mentioned in the article, Weiner, was forced to step down from his high post when his sexting escapades came to light.....
