That particular article of HRA seems to be very loosely enforced, if at all - the great apparatchiks of the mighty EU couldn't possibly have The Great Unwashed free to say how crap it all is, can they?
I too enjoy the anonimity provided here - my views are sometimes controversial, as are those of many others, and the UK Military has strict rules regarding public comments by servicemen. I think only 1 other PPruNer knows my identity.
I feel the discussions that develop in here couldn't be half as interesting without anonimity - and as RLE points out, it is a great leveller.
