When Anna Kozlov caught sight of the elderly man clambering out of a car in her home village of Borovlyanka in Siberia, she stopped dead in her tracks, convinced her eyes were playing tricks.

There, in front of her, was Boris, the man she had fallen in love with and married 60 years earlier. The last time she had seen him was three days after their wedding, when she kissed him goodbye and sent him off to rejoin his Red Army unit.

By the time he returned, Anna was gone, consigned by Stalin’s purges to internal exile in Siberia with the rest of her family as an enemy of the people. They left no forwarding address.

Anna Kozlov and her 80 year old husband Boris were reunited 60 years after they first married.

Whilst I think the prank turning off monitors with a remote control at CES from a guy at Gizmodo was stupid and purile, to then argue that “Anonymity is the enemy” is way off the mark. I wonder if the Chinese Blogger who was beaten to death last week wished he was anonymous.

I have an enormous amount of respect for Seth Godin and have devoured many of his books, but this statement just seems so wrong.
