Are you suggesting that you're not using a nym server [3] for your nyms?!
What's your threat model again?
I don't use a nym-server. Usually. There are other ways to get comparable anonymity. Cardinal Richelieu: "If one would give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest man, I would find something in them to have him hanged." My threat model is an unknown future adversary with unpredictable motivations.
- Scrubbing my language of certain idiosyncratic phraseology or blatant aspects of "style" ... favored slang, etc. Perhaps even purposefully bad grammar in finer points of grammar that most people get wrong - so as to keep the "correct" forms from being identifiable.
A worthy but difficult thing to do.
I imagine it's like that weird random sand-walking the Fremen do. It becomes second nature after a while. Wait, was that nym-leakage ?
