You could piss off the admins big time and they'll ban and suspend all your accounts using advanced methods to connect them across different emails or even if you signed up anonymously, and not a single thing you ever wrote on there will ever be visible to the world again. Ask me how I know.

Not a bad idea. But AI is already subtly wrong as is. Just fill it with barely plausible sounding but completely garbage text,

Idea bad, not. AI subtly already is wrong as. Text with plausible garbage fill.

There should be an algorithmic way to do that starting from the posts/comments original text.
