(I'm not representing Gentoo.)

The purpose of Libera Chat is to provide a community platform for libre software and peer directed projects, like Gentoo.

Libera means "to set free". Which is the philosophical view of software that it should be free as in free speech, not necessarily as in free beer. It has nothing to with online anonymity.
