alcoholics anonymous type group for people who can't stop making new fedi accounts

In the days before the surprise U.S. attack on Iran, Politico reported that
one man in the Defense Department was having an outsized say on Washington’s Iran strategy:
Erik Kurilla, the hawkish U.S. Central Command leader known as “The Gorilla.”
“He’s a big dude, he’s jacked, he’s exactly this ‘lethality’ look they’re going for,” said an anonymous former official.
So long as military advisors “come across as tough and warfighters,”

Hypermasculinity Is Driving U.S. Foreign Policy
Trump’s approach to Iran shows that America’s crisis of manhood has hit the global stage.

It was an amazing day, sun was out, did a photo walk, had a none alcohol beer with great people. Oh and I shaved my head. I’m unrecognisable. #anonymous.

Retrieval-Confused Generation is a Good Defender for Privacy Violation Attack of Large Language Models
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have made a profound impact on our society and also raised new security concerns. Particularly, due to the remarkable inference ability of LLMs, the privacy violation attack (PVA), revealed by Staab et al., introduces serious personal privacy issues. Existing defense methods mainly leverage LLMs to anonymize the input query, which requires costly inference time and cannot gain satisfactory defense performance. Moreover, directly rejecting the PVA …

$(\ell,δ)$-Diversity: Linkage-Robustness via a Composition Theorem
In this paper, we consider the problem of degradation of anonymity upon linkages of anonymized datasets. We work in the setting where an adversary links together $t\geq 2$ anonymized datasets in which a user of interest participates, based on the user's known quasi-identifiers, which motivates the use of $\ell$-diversity as the notion of dataset anonymity. We first argue that in the worst case, such linkage attacks can reveal the exact sensitive attribute of the user, even when each dataset res…

Hello!
I have a happy favour to ask.
Last year, I had a US intern working with us and she now is looking for help that you- good reader of this account- could give.
(She needs academic survey participants)

Research Study on Data Privacy and Collective Redress
A researcher at University College Dublin wants to conduct anonymous interviews to learn about why you would or would not participate in a legal action to rectify a data protection violation. This information can be used to help nonprofit organizations better represent you when organizations violate your data protection rights. Provide your email to receive more information. All personally identifiable information will be deleted following completion of the study.

The 60-year-old man lying on the street, as far as anyone knew, was just a janitor hit by a drunk driver.
There was no mention of it on the local news, no obituary in the morning paper.
His name might have been Anonymous. But it wasn’t. 
His name was Peter Putnam.
He was a physicist who’d hung out with Albert Einstein, John Archibald Wheeler, and Niels Bohr,
and two blocks from the crash, in his run-down apartment, where his partner, Claude, was startled by a scr…
