Maybe it’s time to start running a local model with a browser extension to defend against this type of stuff.

Remember how the TrueCrypt project shut down shortly before a join goverment/university paper was released about code stylometry? I guess LLMs will be employed as a defence against that type of thing.

I so want to reject the notion such a thing is acceptable, but…

TrueCrypt, “replaced” by VeraCrypt which Internet people will claim is backdoored? I haven’t heard about stylometry paper.

btw w/this idea would want to avoid typing into a comment field directly, since the session recorders would capture it (although that’s a different risk - same as our identifiable behavior patterns with our mouse etc.)

How does that defend against something having trained on a corpus of your own previous writing?
