Cloak is a feature of the Linux distro Whonix that masks your unique keyboard typing
Without it, avoid typing directly into JavaScript websites, because it’s easy to fingerprint your keyboard’s response time and typing style. Instead, copy-paste large blocks of text from outside the browser into it. You also get the benefit of your work being saved if the form messes up.
Google docs is cancer, so if someone forces you to use it, then download/upload files with your changes if you can. If you can’t upload with track-changes because the person you are dealing with is brainwashed, then copy-paste, but never type in there directly. You want to avoid Google (and therefore the government) tagging your typing and writing style as you for DIFFERENT anonymous typing in the future.
I'm gonna have to give Whonix a try. What are your thoughts on it vs Tails?
I prefer Whonix because its easier to do a VM than boot to a USB. But if my life depended on it, i might feel differently
Anyway to get cloak on a diff distro?

It's also pretty outdated, sadly. Lots of bugs.
what bugs
Slowing down page scrolling, keys not working, etc.
Oh yeah, that’s happened to everyone, where it spams a key or something. Yeah it sucks, but it’s free open source software with no clear revenue model. So how much can we expect from these quasi-anonymous developers
yep, self-hosted nextcloud + sefl-hosted onlyoffice = perfection
