It isn't easy to deidentidy a dataset. It isn't as simple as removing the names. You don't know in advanced what features in a dataset, when combined with a second dataset, will allow an adversary to reidentify data points. It isn't as simple as adding noise either, because reidentification can be treated like a machine learning problem.
