This reminds me of a paper[0] whose thesis is "We enumerate the requirements that a censorship-resistant system must satisfy to successfully mimic another protocol and conclude that “unobservability by imitation” is a fundamentally flawed approach." It relates to censorship-resistant communication systems such as SkypeMorph, StegoTorus, and CensorSpoofer which aim to evade censors’ observations by imitating common protocols like Skype and HTTP. This is essentially "digital forgery" at the protocol level. I wonder if the thesis could be shown to be generalizable to most digital forgery, or even forgery in general. 0: https://people.cs.umass.edu/~amir/papers/parrot.pdf https://people.cs.umass.edu/~amir/papers/parrot.pdf
