[Whonix-devel] Anti-stylometry

[procmem]

Hi Dr. Juola. Thanks for bringing up interesting points on Github about
anti-stylometry. Given how difficult it would be to have such a thing
automated, would it be possible to use JGAAP defensively, as it is now,
to measure how related a user's anonymous writing is compared to their
actual :real: style?

What properties (for example: length) of a writing sample should a user
use as a reference point to compare against?


My misconception about the ease of automation came about when I saw this
project (I had also contacted them for collaboration, but haven't heard
back):

How useful is this approach against the ton of stylometry techniques you
mentioned?


What advice or books on manual anti-stylometry skills do you recommend
for a layperson who is not a writing professional? Can i add your advice
to our public wiki?


Thanks for your time.
