CHI NL Meet: Hester Bruikman on Privacy Oriented Design

Hester, you work a lot with blockchain technology and privacy-oriented design. What fascinates you most about the work that you do?Since I started working at Status, I’ve realized more and more how much privacy we give up. And I’m not talking about data necessarily, but about control. I realized that every time I use a… Continue reading CHI NL Meet: Hester Bruikman on Privacy Oriented Design
