Just depends dude. They are hackers.. so surely they know how to obscure themselves.. Bitcoin is made to be able to be done anonymously, if done right. However nothing is foolproof.

Exactly, a payment would also act like an admission as well.
'x paid to have these documents hidden, but here they are anyway'
This goes a long way in legitimizing anything released.
