I do believe in taking virtually everything with a grain of salt these days. That said, merely disabling export (as opposed to shutting down the website entirely) sounds like an incredibly stupid way to try to censor something, even by the standards of bureaucratic ineptitude. If there were any real smoke there, one could just send a few dumps to interested journalists, etc. And as we've been seeing, a lot of CV data has been pretty crappy, especially the initial cuts. The idea that they were trying to present valid statistics doesn't really seem that far-fetched.
