Have you wondered if personally identifiable information removal techniques truly protect privacy in real-world scenarios? The authors of this article suspect that reported success of these attacks is largely overestimated. Read what they find here: doi.org/10.1162/COLI... @ivanhabernal.bsky.social

CL Journal has over 50 years of history in the field. While the field is moving, some of the articles from decades ago provide perspective and still relevant content. What do you think of these articles from 20 and 40 years ago? (2006 and 1986) & yes, they used to come in paper format too! #NLProc

Sadly, PRISM makes perfect sense in a world with 28,000 NeurIPS submissions, the idea that the writing of a paper to get bullets on a cv is all that matters, and the further idea that a blog post on a corporate site is equivalent to a paper.
