Outside of my day job, I’m thinking about #FoodInsecurity, #ClimateChange, and #cities. I experiment with #hydroponics, #UrbanAgriculture, and #SensorNetworks to try and create more #ResilientCommunities.

Lives in The Netherlands, EU. Works as self-employed tech consultant & software developer. Likes to tinker & has way too many interests :)

Likely to toot in NL/EN/DE on:

security and cryptography enthusiast at large

Leading online #policy & #enforcement for 40 years. I left as head of Safety and Advocacy for #OkCupid after 9 years with #MatchGroup where I worked in T&S, data governance, legal compliance, DEI, realistic wellness, and ethics then became a #Whistleblower

Formerly worked in IT Security. Probably the world's first non-US-government hacker-catcher, head of commercial security for British Telecom, 2nd (and longest serving) #IRC Operator outside of Finland - And all that #MUD & #MIST stuff.

I once worked with goats. I moved into tech.This was a mistake. 
Expect sheep, wool, and textile history. Also birbs. Infosec on occasion. 
I use content warnings for topics and images that can trigger PTSD. I do not use them to shield people ***without*** trauma from experiencing racism, sexism, transphobia, and other forms of discrimination. If you can ignore politics, you’re not likely in need of content warnings for much of anything, really.
