Frankly, it's a welcome development and I believe theymos has tried enough despite the bad news and deeds surrounding mixers.

If you noticed, it was because of this issue that disclaimers are being issued beneath some posts and some of those mixers often put Bitcointalk as their forum on their site. The Bitcointalk which is supposed to uphold the value of Bitcoin itself shouldn't be dragged into the mud by mixers.

The whole month to embrace the reality is however a very good one and shows how considerate theymos is.
