Phil Cryer (@faker)

I am a hacker, open source technologist, writer and speaker at conferences like DEF CON, B-SidesLV, SecureWorld and SEMAFOR. As an active member of the EFF, I lead and moderate discussions about electronic privacy rights and civil liberties while educating users how their data is being used by companies. I enjoy researching companies weaknesses and failures in safeguarding user’s personal data. I’m constantly learning new techniques to solve technical challenges, sharing what I learn online via posts or code. I listen to music constantly, hold a bachelor’s degree in fine arts, am a practicing troublemaker and like to keep it real.
