I'm probably being persnickety, but I think the title here on HN is mildly misleading, as he is actually named and the actual title of the Bloomberg article calls him "Basically Anonymous" ... not actually anonymous



I'd probably change Anonymous to 'Little-known'. Anonymous would suggest that nobody has any idea who is managing the money...


I agree, we updated the title from “Anonymous Vanguard Fund Manager Oversees $800B” to the less click-baity subtitle.


Yes. And overseeing ETFs is a little different than trying to pick $800 billion in stocks.


meh - made sense to me - "not distinctive" is a very common secondary meaning equivalent to "faceless". I think I'd need a stronger term like secret, covert, unknown etc. to suggest something different.
