To what degree does the internet allow for self-expression?

It seems within the confines of the internet with a wall of anonymity surrounding us, people aren't as reluctant to express their inner selves that are suppressed by the rules of society. With this being said, does this apply to you? To what degree?

The internet allows infinite possiblities of self expression, otherwise you wouldn't find weird ass porn like with midgets. In regards to me, I'm not that crazy, so 'I'll leave my self expression to a minimum so I dont get doxed as easily.

You are right. That's why the internet is so weird and fucked up. People express themselves a lot more. I express myself on the internet, but I try not to be OTT, the internet has enough crazies lol.

There are no boundaries.

But that's just because people are too irrational to control themselves at times.

To whatever degree you would recognize as infinite. This can be beneficial, or it can become a problem since people express themselves a bit too much at name, making them sound irrational and stupid. You are able to express yourself anyway you like with shit like this too if words can't do it for you:
--> (*「・ω・)ン?
--> (」・ω・)」
--> ʅฺ(・ω・。)ʃฺ??
--> (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
--> (人 •͈ᴗ•͈)
--> ╰( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )つ──☆*:・゚
--> ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
--> ∠( ᐛ 」∠)_ and so many others. I fucking love kaomojis.

Also, just because people refuse to expose/express their inner selves online doesn't mean they don't have the ability to do so.

The only boundaries are those you create yourself.

I feel like there's no boundary, say as you will on the internet as long as you're prepared for the negative thoughts people have to say. People can and will troll anything.

I feel like the internet allows for as much self expression as you are okay with, so long as you can ignore rude comments.

There aren't really any boundaries. People self express everywhere.

If there are boundaries, they are most likely made by yourself. You will self express as much as you are comfortable with.
