gollark: Fascinating.
gollark: Four dots? Wow.
gollark: Even if you reverse-engineer where it gets the hashes from and how it operates, by the nature of the thing you couldn't work out what was being detected without already having samples of it in the first place.
gollark: Anyway, the generality of this solution and the fact that they'll probably keep the exact details private for "security"-through-obscurity reasons also means that, as I have written here (https://osmarks.net/osbill/) in a blog post tangentially mentioning it, someone could just feed it hashes for, say, anti-government memes and find out who is saving those.
gollark: Although I suppose that *someone* probably keeps the originals around in case they have to change the hashing algorithm.
