If you think anything you post to newsgroups can ever be done totally anonymously, then I believe you've got another think coming.

I've posted virtually totally anonymously to usenet in the past, this was a very long time ago, I bounced the connection through a few Windows machines across the globe that hadn't had a certain port closed so they acted as relays. The chances of all the machines having incoming/outgoing connection logs turned on was very slim considering the owners didn't know the built-in redirection port wasn't shut down, or that it even existed.

As for the OOT existing in digital form at a higher quality than a laserdisc capture, I bet someone out there does have it but wouldn't release it somehow even if they wanted to for fear of being tracked down.

Imagine the OOT with properly corrected colours, no grain/dirt and without any motion smearing... I don't recall the X0 team saying anything about being able to 'undo' the motion smearing
