Yeah, (O)OP is such a rookie they probably call it Homework, which is a well-known trick. The correct stealth strategy is a directory called linux_malware_test_vm_imgs containing archives such as

clamav_analysis_cumulative.tar
CVE-2022-4907_ffmpeg_backdoor.tar
CVE-2024-3094_xz_backdoor.tar
CVE-2024–2961_php_24yo_chinese_string_insertion.tar
gimp_2022-11-01_trojan.tar
löve2d_hump_bundle.tar
löve2d_pölygamy_crash.tar
löve2d_yaoui.tar
malwarebytes_tarball_anal.tar
qt_vuln_sql_6.3.0.tar
tcp_heading_segment_length_handling_overflow.tar

I know PDF providers who visibly print the customer's name or number in the header of every page, along with short copyright text. I use qpdf --stream-decompress to make the PDF into human-readable PostScript, and then Python+regex to remove each header text, which stand out a bit from other PDF elements. The script throws an error if more or fewer elements than pages have been removed but that hasn't happened yet. Processed documents sometimes have screwed-up non-ASCII characters in the Table of Contents for some reason but I don't have the originas anymore so IDK if it's my fault. Still, I wouldn't share the PDFs unless in text-only or printed form because of any other steganographic shenanigans in the file. I would absolutely torrent them if I could repurchase them under a new identity and verify that the files are identical.

BTW, has anyone figured out how to embed Python code in PDF? The whitespace always gets reencoded as x-coordinates so copy&pasting it never preserves indentation. No, you can't use the Ogham Space Mark (Unicode's only non-blank character classified as a space) for indentation in Python, I tried.

Yes. Technically, a similar vote could repeal the law just as easily but there is a history of governments not giving their power away easily; implementing it also sets a precedent and creates technical enforcement options for other governments willing to go through with something similar in the future, or for hackers to exploit because gov-rooted devices will remain in operation for years after the potential repeal.

Meta is self-reference, not just any reference

Edit: looks like I'm switching to GNU Units

~~Use Wolfram Alpha, which is a mathematics engine first and text parser second (and it shows: the math is flawless but it wouldn't understand the query; both need to be asked separately: 1/2). ChatGPT performs similarly this time but I wouldn't trust it to expand a polynomial because there is very high chance that it would hallucinate some terms.~~

Of course, any calculator will do for this, it's easy to verify that 2÷3×14 = 14÷1.5, no need to have a server run a billion times more complex calculation.

One of the most egregious fast fashion vendors. They steal people's artwork for printed-on-demand shirts and only settle when called out. Whenever any clothes item grows in popularity, they shift their production overnight to cash in on impulse buying. Not to mention the labor violations.

small d**k energy

Lame. I get they might need to censor it but it's easy to cover with part of another sticker and make it look incidental.
