Swedish term or phrase: men inte helt ovanligt
Referring to a web site that has news articles, the site is being commented as being unusual as there are no contact details to be found, no telephone number, no email address etc ...Im thinking of "not uncommon", but just wanted to see your suggestions thanks

Inget namn på vem som ligger bakom. Ingen emailadress eller postadress, inget telefonnummer. Inte ens en kontaktsida. Underligt, men inte helt ovanligt (fast mest på mindre seriösa sajter).
