New appendix: Spreading disinformation through Social Media: a how-to for protecting pseudonymous identities about thgtoa

I think this is already covered in the guide in the https://anonymousplanet.org/guide.html#creating-new-identities section

And specifically the "creating a legend" (lore) part?

Would you like something specific added there? Yes anonymous persistent identities need to have a lore, a legend, a story, a full load of fake but plausible information.

I'm not sure what we could add there but suggestions are welcome if you have something more "precise".

And this is the difference between a pseudonymous identity and an anonymous identity.

As long as you respect OPSEC advice carefully which we give at https://anonymousplanet.org/guide.html#some-last-opsec-thoughts

And also respecting as much as possible techniques to counter linguistic analysis at https://anonymousplanet.org/guide.html#appendix-a4-counteracting-forensic-linguistics

I just noticed there is no current how-to related to staying anonymous - besides the DNM bible (lol seriously?). We need a more definitive guide that will probably take forever to create and I think maybe won't even fit in the OpSec area of the guide. It could just be a project for later. Who knows. I have many ideas when it comes to falsifying identities for participating in online circles and how to misdirect and subvert.

There is an opsec section with loads of recommendations ? https://anonymousplanet.org/guide.html#some-last-opsec-thoughts ?

It doesn't discuss specific instructions to evade and to put out misinformation; persuasion, misdirection, etc. Which is something I want to add to the guide.

But our guide is not about fighting misinformation, persuasion and misdirection. It's about keeping our identities safe precisely by using misinformation, persuasion, misdirection... We should guide people in helping them sort out the people we advice how to use misinformation for their own anonymity?

It does seem sort of "meta" but it's just a thought.
