Anonymity is impossible with _any_ dataset.
If you have more than three pieces of information about a person you can unmask them quite easily with nothing more than a google search.
With the current generation of AI I'm sure you can unmask people en-mass.
If only we'd used encryption. Oh well.
- mjevans 3y agoIt's likely worse than that. Any social graph is likely corrosive for anonymity. Who knows whom, who talks to whom. What platforms they connect on and how often. As a society we'd be better off trying to make living in glass houses possible, since we're rapidly approaching the point of seeing through everything.
