Why are many authors now listed as "Hidden"? Is this related to the purge? I long had access to view ALL stories, and yet, while I can access the files, I can no longer see a wide array of authors which I could before.
Was this designed to 'protect' their identities, presumably of those who wrote the stories which provoked the targeted attacks, or just a way of distancing SOL from them?
I'm assuming (crossing my fingers) that it's to help those being attacked, yet it also makes communicating with those targeted or offering aid and assistance a bit more complicated, though I haven't tried to contact any of these 'unknown' authors, since I have no way of knowing whether I know any of them or not..
