Ohai! I'm working on dataset poisoning. The early prototype generates vapid LinkedIn posts but future versions will be fully pluggable with WebAssembly.
Hi Xena! Your blog is amazing! Didn't realize you're working on Anubis - it's a really nice tool for the internet! Reminds me a bit of the ye' olde internet for some reason.
You've made one of the best solutions, that matched what I thought of implementing myself, and at the time it was most needed. I think a couple of "thank you" are sorely missing in this comment section.
Probably any detail that you think is cool, I would be interested in reading about. When in doubt err on the side of too much detail.
That was a good read. I hadn’t heard of spintax before, but I’ve thought of doing things like that. Also “pseudoprofound anti-content”, what a great term, that’s hilarious!
It's slightly different in subtle ways. If I recall iocaine makes you configure a subprocess that it executes to generate garbage. One rule I have for Anubis in the code is that fork()/exec() are banned. So the pluggable garbage generator is gonna be powered by CGI handlers compiled to WebAssembly. It should be fun!
I think that most people don't do this, and the ones that do have custom solutions. Xena's uses cron, but that's all I know. It's probably a custom shell script.
Also you mentioned Anubis, so it’s creator will probably read this. Hi Xena!
