explain that JS can be used to fingerprint people. see https://www.deviceinfo.me/ for the details on what JS enables.

maybe also add the following about what cloudflare tries to do to fingerprint users:

solution imo is to just disable javascript in the tor browser and stop using cloudflare websites

stylometry fingerprinting: https://seirdy.one/posts/2022/07/09/stylometric-fingerprinting-redux/

also needs to be explained how you talk persona (any hints you give when talking can be used to fingerprint you) >>> use a local LLM to change your writing style
SoundPotential: Llama3.2 3B would be perfect for this, should also run on lower end devices
SoundPotential: have multiple profiles (kind of like incognito profiles in simplex)

do not type text directly, type it in a notepad and copy paste it,
strip files from all the metadata (see exiftool w/ pictures taken from your phone)

RemissivePretty - Regarding stylometry protection:

Log the conversation on the forum/server you're using, feed it into a capable local LLM, and thus generate the most natural kind of conversation you could get for that environment.

Generally speaking, plain english will not make you stand out. While little things might narrow it down just a tiny bit (starting with a lower case like Nihilist does right now), they will have no way to target you specifically.
