Recommended Technology >>> OPSEC Recommendations:

you only mentionned the VM for anonymous use, mention also the tutorials for public use VM, private use, and sensitive use. (also reuse the VM setup image : "../internetsegmentation/6.png"

a few problems in the graph:

Public Profile: you are operating under your real name, no pseudonym
Private Profile: you are operating under a pseudonym (but you may reveal your real name)
Anonymous profile: you are operating without ever revealing your real identity. but you are NOT doing anything sensitive
Sensitive profile: you are operating anonymously and doing something sensitive.

in the graph: mention the names you use under each profile

"There have been real world cases of linguistic analysis leading to arrests simply because the user could be traced between multiple personas through linguistic tendencies, such as misspelling a word in a unique way. " >>> add links to examples of arrests over stylometry

add a section: Building the characters:
make a second graph to showcase what goes into the building of the characters like Alice Liddell (what's her story, what she likes, what she wants / needs, where she lives, how she is supposed to write (her writing style),

RULES for charcater building:

NONE of these 4 identities must be linkable to each other, they are all unique
none of the 4 know of any of the others, nor do they interact with each other. from start to finish.
(the accounts / services used by one of the identities, cannot be transfered / sold / given to any of the others) no linkability.
there is ONE VM to be used PER identity (link to the tutorial on internet use segmentation)

-> showcase how 2 of the characters would talk to each other

"Isolation: Services, accounts, or data should not be shared across identities." >> also mention that 2 of your made up identities should never interact with each other, that is to prevent your identities from being linked together. Neither character talks about any other character, nor do they know about each other, etc.
"Vary your writing style, sentence structure, and vocabulary." >> also mention "or using a local LLM to rewrite your messages before you send them."

rest looks good, let me know once it's fixed so i merge it and send payment
