Authorship was added to popup comments for 
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73537

Ability to remove that data was added in follow-up for 
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156336

And toggle to see or hide it is coming in 24.8 for follow-up 
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156885

If an export still contains the authorship despite it being toggled off, 
please open a bug report. You can test a pre-release of 24.8:

Thank you!
