Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In many parts of the world, censors are continuously increasing their capacity to fingerprint, identify, and block censorship resistance tools to maintain control over what can and can not be accessed over the Internet. In response, traffic replacement, which involves co-opting a steady stream of uncensored overt traffic to serve as a perfect cover for censored covert content, has been developed in an effort to provide undetectable access to the open Internet for those in censored regions. Despite the promise of this technique, creating a suitable stream of uncensored overt traffic that is high throughput, fingerprint and identification resistant, and does not overburden the user to generate, is an underexplored area that is critical to traffic replacement's success.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
