Mouse movements, typing speed, and typing style can serve as unique identifiers, much like fingerprints. As AI technology advances, it may become increasingly effective at recognizing these patterns, potentially compromising individuals’ anonymity. Are there any measures available to protect against this?

    Are there any measures available to protect against this?

    • Disable scripts in your web browser, except for important sites that depend on javascript.
    • If any of those important sites are not trustworthy, write text in a local editor and copy/paste it into the site where needed. Do not type directly into text fields on the site.
    • Avoid other sites that require scripts.
    • Ask and/or pressure site owners to make them work without scripts where possible.

    Keep in mind that however you modify your text entry habits on untrusted sites, if scripts are allowed, your modified behavior can also be fingerprinted.
