if the developers of Truecrypt are anonymous and the license doesn't allow something like this, would this allow us to find out who the developers are if they sue?
To what end? Just because one can steal someones code or force them to reveal their identity doesn't mean it's a good or nice idea.
Apologies if I missed anything, I don't follow this truecrypt stuff too closely.
If they sued, yes, they would have to reveal themselves. One of the developers got dox'd recently, which may have something to do with shutting the project down. (https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=ru&tl=en&js=y&prev...)
