absolutely. you see this, i see this:
some users we can actually see their personality change completely based on whether they’re as-anon or as-named. nevertheless, we respect user privacy and never divulge anon identities… unless we catch then sockpuppeting in the comments to cause drama and/or break the rules. then they’re fair game. we don’t respect those who don’t respect our rules or other users, and all that.

oh-ho, our crack team of e-detectives are on the case:
we have many ways of knowing who’s who and all that. everything from dedicated functions used to identify this and that, to good old fashioned common sense.
@sTs
totally. i actually can’t think of a reason we would change an uploader to/from anonymous unless they actually wanted us to do it. sometimes we change uploader credit of an image to the artist who drew it, though. same with comments and posts: as long as they don’t break any rules we’re not going to delete them unless asked. i’m just saying we can, in fact, do it.
