Hope you don't mind my replying but a young relation had selective mutism, in their case it was a response to a traumatic episode. They wouldn't speak in school at all but as soon as they were collected would talk.
I don't see why it couldn't be the same online. At the same time I know myself I find it much easier to write something down than vocalise it
