Hmm, most people would be ok with that sort of data being sent out in an anonymized form. I’m surprised that you didn’t suggest that before hand. Is there any chance you can contact the people in question and get their permission to release the anonymized data?

We could, but really, there’s no information there, no matter how much Bayes magic you use. It’s noise. If the data was at all significant then we’d send it out, of course. We might actually have gotten anonymized disclosure agreement from everyone; I don’t remember. But it didn’t end up mattering.
