This is a pretty interesting article that I found that even though it is a couple weeks old now I think that it still hold true and gives important information. The article talks about how the NSA sues langue to track identities of anonymous people, like Satoshi Nakamoto, the person who invented bitcoin. They use a lot of techniques that are actually not that new to trace back his origin and pin point who he really is. What is interesting is back in the late 90s this is part of the way that the FBI caught the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski. They analysed his manifesto and published it and with the uniqueness of his language was able to find him. I thought this was interesting with us hacking different systems we all leave a trace or a something that is unique about us that sometimes we don’t even realize.
