Robin Doherty

Robin is a software developer who believes the software industry is culpable in the demise of privacy. He attempts to demystify and promote privacy tech by facilitating workshops, making noise on the internet, and organising a collective of software makers called Hack for Privacy. Robin is a software developer and co-founder of Hack for Privacy. After observing the disregard for users’ security prevalent throughout the software industry, and the lack of respect for privacy across society as a whole, his despair was turned to action by Snowden’s revelations of 2013. He believes that the software industry is culpable in the demise of privacy, most people are in denial about their own role in mass surveillance, and now is the time to fix our attitudes. He attempts to demystify and promote privacy in Australia by facilitating workshops, making noise on the internet, and organising Hack for Privacy.
