Anyone spending the brief liminal window between Christmas and Georgian new year in Hamburg, with the hackers, at CCC? I am! And I'll be presenting new research and a new talk ☺️ . What happens when we put love and intimacy at the center of our understanding of privacy, and what are the consequences of their disavowal, in favor of a more familiar technocratic definition of privacy-as-absence, privacy-as-isolation? What role does our deep desire for love and belonging, and our concomitant fear of shame and rejection, have to do with the (mis)direction of tech capital and the current, warped shape of the tech industry and its products?

Talked to an old (and a new) friend for two hours and had such a nice time that I forgot we were recording. ❤️👇
