Hi,

is there a way to tell anonymize to ignore NAs?

This is a good question actually. I'm looking into anonymization re: the GDPR, and I used to just set all variables with identifying information (e.g. email addresses etc) to NA. But of course it may be useful to remember who provided data, even if you don't know what the data were. @paulhendricks - I can also implement this in the gdpR packaging I'm working on, if this is no goal of anonymizer? It's not hard to do after all :-)

@Matherion Feel free! It's been a while since I've developed anything with this package. I've happy to accept pull requests, however, I won't be doing any active development on it.
