Answer:

Yes, it is different.

Step-by-step explanation:

Online communication is different from talking to someone in person.

When we speak to someone in person we are more restrained, more timid and, often, we are afraid to give certain opinions and speak what comes to our mind. This is because in face-to-face communication there is nothing to protect us, to remove us from the moment when we say something embarrassing or that we argue. In online communication, on the other hand, there is a certain protection of our image in relation to what we have said. So online communication is more uninhibited, courageous and unfiltered, although we shouldn't, we often have the courage to say what we want online, because we can always delete, log out and leave the chat.
