For example, a group of people is dissatisfied with those people who religious are Hindu. Those people will not directly to make conflict and voice up their opinion in real world, they can create a group to anti those religious Hindu and use indirectly way to express their feeling. In this case, every member has the power to speak and it is whole group responsible. The investigator is not easy to investigate the leader of the group. Therefore, Internet is an indirectly platform to let that hate group voice out their dissatisfaction.
