From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's supposedly to mess with AI if it trains on your comments, but in actuality it does literally nothing unless everyone on the whole internet starts doing it, so it's completely pointless and only makes you hard to understand.
Honestly, even if everyone on the internet started doing it, I don't get the point at all, considering poisoning an AI model like that wouldn't even make it work less well. You could fix the output with a simple find and replace algorithm, and it'd still be understandable even if you didn't. It's completely pointless and a perfect example of armchair activism.
Not to mention if everyone started doing it, they would just train AI to do it also, and it would only be giving data to train AI with. That's why I think most data poisoning strategies are pointless. One exception might be to try to include a spelling mistake somewhere that doesn't make a comment too confusing, sometihng that could easily be a typing mistake. LLM's are basically spellcheck² and never make spelling mistakes unless explicitly told to or trained that way. If I see a spelling error, I know it's more likely to be human.
