As members of tech community and due to the sensitive and risky nature of our work, the Anonymous members prefers to remain anonymous and use pseudonyms due to fear of retaliation and damaged career prospects because of institutionalized racism, censorship, and Islamophobia, except for Chad Khorasani who has agreed to reveal his identity and act as our representative. We believe that anonymity is one of the core values and advantages of DAOs, as it allows us to protect our privacy and security, as well as to focus on our mission and impact. We hope that you respect and supports their choice of anonymity, and we assure you that we are fully committed and accountable to our DAO and its goals.
