> anonymous information is untrustworthy

Is any information trustworthy? Shouldn’t it all be verified or interrogated or seen as a particular observation at a particular point in time?

Provenance (chain of custody) is very important for any evidence. Look at the problem of fakes in archaeology and how in some cases they have skewed the entire historical narrative.

If someone is not even willing to put their name on something, there is no way to even attempt to trace it.
