My favorite thing about the internet is its creative potential
Could learn stuff from it
And the fact that I can talk to my mom and dad for free
The cat videos
The openness and the potential for inclusion
Meet new people and actually connect with friends all across the world
I'm a little concerned with like people tracking
what I'm doing online and where I'm going.
My biggest worry about the internet is that it's going to be incredibly boring
That the internet is just becoming a shopping mall
The amount of data we share about what we're doing,
about who we are, or what we think
Harassment, hurt, harm, those are the things that I worry about
when I worry about the internet.

The future that I would like for the internet is a place
of cohesion, that is a place that is being designed by
everyone for everyone.
I use art and code to critique data tracking on the internet.
By using art to manipulate the internet, we can teach machines
the otherness and complexity of our lives.
I'm working to teach youth the skills they need to
have their best online lives.
It's been pretty incredible, we've got a 7 year old just behind me
that's running a session. He's been to MozFest for 5 years and
is now running his own session, giving back.
I'm working to spotlight promising approaches to
making the internet healthier.
I'm working to bring the values of openness and community
to academic research.
I'm working for an internet that treats people's data respectfully.
I'm working to make sure that the things that are most precious to you
are preserved on the web forever.
I'm hoping for an internet that is kind, warm, and welcoming.
