Hmm. They don't publicise that very well...

The only anonymisation option I was aware of was a plugin to remove the 
last byte of the IP and I didn't think that was good enough.

How do you configure the full anonymisation like that? Is that just the 
default if you allow the anonymous user to have access?

I think that would be a nightmare to manage. It was certainly the 
intention to add more of the "core" sites to bring in all the many 
country specific sites that are run by third parties would be a massive 
task I think.
