Encode your secret message as a bunch of numbers, xor them your OTP, and then look up users with those numbers and simply re-tweet their most recent message.
Now your message is encoded in the userids of who you retweet.
- wintersFright 13y agoAren't go just publishing the otp and not the message? Or did I miss something?
- ctb_mg 13y agoThey're publishing the encrypted ciphertext, which is the plaintext message xor OTP (aka the key). The encrypted ciphertext would be the user id's of all recent retweets. The receiving party would have to know the OTP to decrypt the message.
- brey 13y agogood suggestion. you probably want to encode some redundancy so you can pick plausibly interesting people to retweet, rather than your xor'd number being an obvious bot, or it's still suspicious.
- graue 13y agoMight be less obtrusive to favorite instead of retweeting. (Edit: This assumes you can get a list of favorited tweets ordered by when they were favorited. I just noticed the web interface orders them by time posted, not time favorited.)
