Are you saying the ruse is that negative1 is no longer a part of the project (I think virtually everyone is in agreement about that...), or that there is indeed mid-to-large size group working on this stuff, rather than just one guy? Aspects of their updates and progress do suggest to me that it's a team.
It's no secret that -1 worked closely with other people long before the team identity was dreamed up, don't see any reason to suggest that this has changed. There was already a team before the Team.
I'm kind of on the fence about caring about this. On the one hand, I think deception is unnecessary and strange. On the other hand, as far as I can tell it is 100% about privacy concerns and/or paranoia than a need to trick people. As people have pointed out, there is no real privacy when it comes to Disney/law/anyone who cares to really figure it out. But if it's only a silly motive, and not a malicious one, I don't quite see what's offensive about it. Most people would probably be dishonest to received credit for something they haven't done rather than exactly the opposite.
Well, part of it certainly is the futility of the act, and part of it is the quality of the acting. I haven't seen anything so transparent since Monty Python's North Minehead by-election skit. If I'm going to have to sit through that sort of act, I want at least that much entertainment value (no offense to Frink).
