It's not very clear for me with all the drama around, but they were threatening him with revealing his real identity, didn't they?

You're right about the anon bit but my own personal view is that unless someone has committed a crime (that can be proved beyond doubt) then posting people's real world identities is fucked up.
It is, I just found it funny, being he the Person he is on Reddit. The only enforced rule across different subreddits I remember is not posting personal info.
