Protect your privacy: Hide in plain sight

21    30 Mar 2017 20:42 by u/roznak

The government want to have backdoors, companies wants to spy on you, ISP's wants to track you....

Does that mean that we are a victim? NO WAY. It is actually an advantage because you can hide in the signal by creating more noise.

Imagine that you create a Python script that generates google searches, use speech to voice to generate Cortana/Siri/Alexa text to voice requests, whatsapp fake communications....

Once you do that then you can decide how you want to be portrayed

  • Christian boy? Focus on searching for Christian related Google searches: The Lord is my Saviour and visit those web sites.
  • Be a high end developer so tech companies find you? Generate google searches on: Implementing design patterns and visit those web sites.
  • Uninteresting customer: Randomize the google searches so your data becomes random.
  • Pretend to be an AI bot? Retweet facebook and twitter tweets without regard of content.
  • Pretend to be a happy family? Have profiles so that the teen age son surf for porn at certain times, the dad at other times to to chat with the mistress, and the mum googling for new receipts.
  • Pretend to be a single unmarried perfect male? .....

People you are developers, and good developers use their creativity to break all the rules of programming to get the desired result.

I like this!

Even better if you portray yourself as one of those select target markets that the big corps like to throw free shit at - senior Insurance executives, doctors, CEO's - the guys who get $500 just to come to the Mercedes dealership to test drive the most expensive car on the lot.

Yes, they exist.

Yep you can take any identity you want.

I have noticed recently that the Internet is forgetting who I am. Up until a few years ago "the Internet never forgets". However with all these privacy tracking, telemetry data, the big companies gets so overwhelmed that they have to filter the data and interestingly enough all the data I find on myself are outdated, wrong and unusable. Even though my name is still out there it gets corrupted with data that they try to complete but is completely wrong.

The added bonus is that big data is so vast that big companies can't even verify anymore if their data is actually valid or pure corrupted and fakes.

Back in MMORPG days, they used to have surveys you could do to earn in game money. I used to fail out because not target audience. Then one day, another user told me to get a online profile of an18-35 latina with 2 kids and use that. Totally worked, was glorious.

Yes, but I open the discussion to have more ideas and to trigger more people to create their own variant.

We should not have one discussion how to pollute the privacy data, it should be flooded with many different people all talking and discussion how to do it. Variation is key here so the other people gets enough interest to start their own variant.

It should become so on the top of discussions so that even search engines will show people how to hide their privacy by noise.
