Increase in unsportsmanlike conduct

I've played chess for decades. In the past couple of weeks it seems like a handful of players each day are being incredibly rude in chat and chess.com doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. What has happened to proper etiquette?

Not sure if it's a chess problem or an internet problem. I recommend turning chat off in the settings.

About etiquette:

People under anonymous unverified accounts get access to public chats with near zero responsibility, what can go wrong

About chess.com doing nothing:

There might be like 10 moderators per 1 million of players I guess but they do mute and ban rude users
