So is it your position that:
(1) There are legitimate reasons for wanting an(n)onymity.
(2) At least one non-brain-surgeon has figured out how to do it using standard
    Unix resources.

Fine, so then you shouldn't have any objections to an anonymous service meant
for those non-brain-surgeons and other medically untrained users who are too
dumb or too busy to figure out how to replicate your feat, or want replies to
their anonymous messages.
