Remember kids, don't delete your account. Use scripts to replace all of your posts and comments with nonesense. If there is an option in your script to feed itba "dictionary", I highly suggest using books from the public domain like "Lady Chatterley's Lover" by D. H. Lawrence. Replace all images and video links with Steam Boat Willie.

Generally, what's the best/most efficient way to make LLMs go off the rail? I mean without just typing lots of gibberish and making it too obvious. As an example: I've seen people formatting their prompts with java code for like 2 lines and replies instantly went nuts.

I use a few dozen novels in a single text file and randomize which lines the script pulls. It then replaces the text three times with a random pull. What you end up with are four responses in plain English. Which is the real one? You could filter out responses edited after "the great exodus", but I have been doing this to my comments a few times per year during my twelve years on reddit.

The truth is that even if I don't get them all, I get enough that it makes it far easier for the group that bought the data to just filter my username out rather than figure out what's junk and what isn't.
