@djb what is the justification given for not posting? Is it technical or too long to share?

@Pyrrhlin Specifically, they claimed that they "require (human) author names" rather than an "organization". But organizations are listed as authors of documents all the time (e.g.: https://web.archive.org/web/20250309024856/https://iacr.org/petitions/gaza_war.html); previous cryptographic research papers from organizations have appeared on eprint (e.g.: https://web.archive.org/web/20250130053518/https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/087.pdf); and published eprint policy says "any author" (https://web.archive.org/web/20240413134704/https://iacr.org/eprint/). It's clear that IACR's actual goal here is to suppress this particular new report, not to be consistent.

@djb oh, probably “submissions must not be anonymous and state title, author name(s), and a contact address or affiliation(s) on the first page”
