If ... anonymity is something you or other gods are free to breach at your discretion ... I would regrettably cease participation.

This seems like a rather excessive reaction. Let's say the two ends of the continuum are (1) a site with no anonymity, and (2) a site with perfect anonymity. The biggest possible change can be from (2) to (1). Perhaps tye's actions have caused you to suddenly realize that the anonymity here can be violated (using the word according to your definition), and we move from somewhere near (2) to a spot much closer to (1). According to your opening paragraph, this "isn't a big deal." But your reaction says that it is a big deal; big enough to completely stop participating. This doesn't make sense to me.
