So the typical #infosec tactic of hiding people's traffic is great, but can you go a step further and actively sabotage automated market analysis and such with false data?
Like, have your email service throw a couple randomly-picked product and candidate names in the #encryption , removed at the other end. Flood the bots with so much white noise that info gained from ANYONE becomes worthless
@socalledunitedstates IIRC, most (all?) of those attempts have been easy to model/detect and filter out, is the issue. And so, just a waste of effort.
@gaditb Fuck, didn't know it'd been tried before. That's a shame
I don't suppose making it truly random, like by seeding the generation with the encrypted message so each one is different, would help?
@socalledunitedstates The actions they're trying to detect aren't random, so...
