I'm not sure what you're asking. Obfsucating means making the code unreadable/unintelligible. Think minimfy js on steroids. Debofuscating just means undoing the obfuscation.

'Debo' or 'Deob'?

I can't find any formal definitions after a quick google search, but there seem to be a ton of uses of "debofuscating" in different research papers.

It's just a typo, and we're all human. Maybe focus on the really interesting research instead?

It's a typo in the article title, relax. The <title> has the correct spelling.

Maybe you don't understand Latin root words as prefixes and suffixes, in which case I highly recommend doing a bit of research into it. It really makes the English language more understandable when you can parse words based on their roots rather than on rote memorization.

They were commenting on "bofuscate" vs. "obfuscate". I suspect they've got a healthy understanding of what the prefix "de" means here.
