For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

If keywords are a trigger, then one could run the whole script through a bash obfuscator. I hear you though, I just think testing for hardware trickery would be easier to detect than software trickery. Running lsusb would give you the device id which could be mapped back to the product page.

Or you can just base64 encode/decode it. But that too is a common technique of obfuscation and I would be impressed and surprised if it didn't also trigger an alert

Running lsusb

But that's the thing. Nobody is going to be remoting into your machine and running lsusb on your computer without significant cause. If you're that paranoid you can change the VID and PID and name ez pz.
