The premise
Promised anonymity gets blown by tiny details — a job title, a phrase pattern; AI catches what you've stopped noticing.
What AI does well here
- Surface identifying phrasings to paraphrase
- Flag combinations of details that uniquely identify
- Suggest aggregations that preserve meaning
- Generate decoy detail to obscure when ethical
What AI cannot do
- Erase a digital trail you've already left
- Restore anonymity once a source is recognized
