I wouldn't call PaXTeam anonymous. Just as PJ was, or our other resident annoyance Florian Mueller, his actions speak for him. Unlike Florian, he has code to speak for him as well, and I think put together this produces a fairly good picture of the sort of guy he is: a classic security geek, a skilled coder who produces results worth using, whose skill at spotting vulnerabilities has perhaps leaked into a paranoid and adversarial view of the real world. (Not all security geeks are like this, by any means: some are charming and helpful to all comers. For all I know PaXTeam is charming offline: there are several major free software personalities who are like that. But we must judge from the online persona we see.)
