I interviewed there some time ago. I saw the internal system they're talking about, and the attitude there indeed is that they're tracking users (specifically their locations, timestamps and previous posts, but they are able to distinguish discrete users using these metrics). What actually made my spidey sense tingle during my site visit was a weird sort of groupthink there. I interviewed at many places, but at Whisper I got the distinct feeling of collective hivemind. The kind where one guy can get away with saying, "Do the village. Do the whole fucking village." For what it's worth, I'm not sure they as a group (at the lowest levels) feel/felt they were committing any wrongdoing by labeling it "anonymous" while also simultaneously tracking users down to location, timestamp, and post on this big internal map. But the guys in charge understand exactly what they're into. Also they're at least aware that they are tracking users on military bases, since that conversation came up. For what it's worth.
