Doesn't the function fix the "anon" file you sent?

Is it possible to have access to the file? You might want to hide
contents first with the following function

  (defun scramble-contents ()
    (interactive)
    (let ((tree (org-element-parse-buffer)))
      (org-element-map tree '(code comment comment-block example-block 
fixed-width
                                   keyword link node-property plain-text 
verbatim)
        (lambda (obj)
          (cl-case (org-element-type obj)
            ((code comment comment-block example-block fixed-width keyword
                   node-property verbatim)
             (let ((value (org-element-property :value obj)))
               (org-element-put-property
                obj :value (replace-regexp-in-string "[[:alnum:]]" "x" value))))
            (link
             (unless (string= (org-element-property :type obj) "radio")
               (org-element-put-property obj :raw-link "http://orgmode.org";)))
            (plain-text
             (org-element-set-element
              obj (replace-regexp-in-string "[[:alnum:]]" "x" obj)))))
        nil nil nil t)
      (let ((buffer (get-buffer-create "*Scrambled text*")))
        (with-current-buffer buffer
          (insert (org-element-interpret-data tree))
          (goto-char (point-min)))
        (switch-to-buffer buffer))))
