The fix is clearly wrong.

Currently, if the currentUser is not set, we're throwing an error.
By removing that code, you are making the rest of the code prone to cannot get property "<prop>" of undefined errors.

Also, there's currently no check on whether a group is public or not which means, even if you bypass the above errors, you will still get wrong results back as the accessibleGroups, which is used to determine if the user has access to the requested groups, will be empty (since the user is not authenticated).

Thanks @ThomasKranitsas , I'll remove this from Bug Bash.
