This interviewer couldn’t be more obtuse, even rolling out the ol’ “if I haven’t got anything to hide…” trope. A transparently agenda-laden hit job on Meredith Whittaker, Signal and privacy tech generally, which she dealt with with tact and grace. #privacy

New Sunday Times profile in which I succeed, like a fencer in a 2hr marathon match, in fending off Qs abt my personal life & consistently turning focus back to my work & ideas. (Contra the interviewer's claim, many ppl do know me! They're called friends, & you know who you are ❤️) https://archive.is/BtZD0 image
