I reckon it's a bit out of order for the Mail On Sunday to have revealed Banksy's identity
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7504132.stm
Part of the value of his art clearly derives from his guerilla-like anonymity
Now that they have unmasked him as a public schoolboy it's almost certainly gonna have an impact on the worth of his art
I'd guess that they take exception to the whole grafitti thing preferring instead watercolours of lovely countryside scenes?
