The internet has fundamentally transformed the way we communicate and access information. But while it lifts us up, it has also become the most potent enabler of totalitarian surveillance that the world has ever seen.

In this talk, I explore the privacy implications of our growing digital world, and the kind of future we are paving the way towards. I also dive into what we can do today to try to ensure a better future.

00:00 The Internet's Double-Edged Sword
03:33 Current State of Privacy
07:46 Effects of Pervasive Surveillance
18:22 The Normalization of Surveillance and its Psychological Effects
25:00 Recap So Far
25:34 What Can We Do TODAY for a Better Tomorrow
33:54 Conclusion

As we celebrate the marvel that is the modern digital world, it’s vital we recognize the internet’s dual nature: it’s as much a beacon of enlightenment as it is a potential tool for surveillance. History is riddled with instances where powerful entities have misused it to target the vulnerable and the voiceless.

As we craft the web’s future, let’s not just innovate; let’s protect.
Every line of code, every infrastructure choice, every innovation can not only push the boundaries of what’s technologically possible, but can also uphold the fundamental right to privacy for billions of people across the globe.
Let's create a better internet!
