👏 Poison 👏 your 👏 data ☠️

@wurzelmann @alice I do that too, but sometimes an account recovery flow requires you to answer the question over the phone. That gets awkward.
@jef @wurzelmann @alice Many password managers support generating random words. I use that for anything which might need to be read out.

And that was a re-release of the single "Fake Code Repository" by Tall Simon from the "Subtly Broken" album., on Elusive Sasquatch records.

@wurzelmann @alice noone should answer any of these questions honestly!
@F3715H @wurzelmann @alice Except in the situations where you are required to answer truthfully, like when dealing with banks and infostealers^W credit bureaus, which may come up unexpectedly. I nearly lost a ~$20k stock bonus because my employer at the time used information from a website I had assumed didn’t need to have real information about me.

@bob_zim @wurzelmann @alice well, they should've disclosed that detail!

your WHAT? -
@alice Great advice! I also love using my password manager to save "answers" to security questions.
"Maiden name of mother"?
Easy: "fdsdkljf89rtu23he4orhweörfwer0weh334h234234"
"First dog's name"?
Ah, little "dfshfsdfui6z43207r2phreuihdesfs7d89fsdfsd9fsfdf" was so cute!
@wurzelmann @alice
"We called him Diffy." -

"This comedy caused me to die laughing." -
The Orion browser supports Firefox plugins on iOS IIRC.

@diegomartinez @Gorfram @alice Yeah I know ;). I hope to be pensioned by then but the government is trying to prevent that ;).

@diegomartinez @Gorfram @alice Oh, the planet will still be there, possibly without mankind… (hypergalactic bywayconstruction excluded from scenario’s).

I would not use those. If you are talking to a human, those are too easy to social engineer "Well, to be honest, I just touched my yubikey and left that answer in, so I don't remember it."
I put wrong answers in, but ones that you can actually speak. "Yes, my sister's middle name is "Fang II: This Time It's Personal" and "Sure, my first dog was named The airplane on 77 Water St, Manhattan"

@elithebearded @alice I've literally never had to use those in a spoken way...

@alice @wurzelmann I am tall, I am blonde, now I just need to figure out the friendly part.

The goal is to make corporate data less profitable.
Even stuff as simple as setting your birthdate to 1970-01-01 everywhere, adding [TEST] or [DELETED] as your name or account notes anywhere you don't need them to know your name.
Using plugins like AdNauseam to poison ad trackers (and cost them marketing dollars).
Using VPNs set to different locations.
Signing into data broker sites to "correct" outdated info (they'll often let you do that with little-to-no proof of identity, but will require your passport or state ID in order to delete your info). Bonus points if you correct it to someone else's info on their site that's similar to yours.
Only fill in required fields when you sign up for anything, but only provide correct info if it matters for you to use the service, otherwise provide plausible, but incorrect, data.
If you use LLMs anywhere, use the free tier and always vote thumbs up for bad answers and down for good ones. It wastes their resources and drives up their costs while making their training data worse.
