I'm not sure what you mean by "Those in power" there are lot's of people who know, but recognise that he has chosen anonymity and see no value in putting a name to the person.
replyIt's not so much a secret as it is simply not public.
Not sure what you mean by "not public", given that you can just search it up and find a Reuters article from March giving out his full name and background.
replySimple logic, if you make an anti-nationalist-war point and current mainstream politicians are against the war, you are just an establishment stooge.
replyGood. I'm glad most of the media have come to a gentlemen's agreement to not blast his name everywhere. Adds a little more fun to the world. Even this statute is staying for now, the local council, bless them, have decided to leave it in place for the near future.
replyReuters published a lengthy "unmasking" in March of this year and nobody really cared.
replyI think his name not being blasted everywhere has more to do with it being thoroughly uninteresting than any gentlemen's agreement.
Who cares? Are you similarly triggered by The Rock or Alemao? Banksy is Banksy.
replyTracking Bansky is a favorite spy software sales demo given to authoritarian governments.
replyThe point appears to have whizzed a couple of feet over your head.
