Hi I'm Harry. I am foremost an aspiring software engineer, but secondly I am someone that likes to share my knowledge with the world. Due to my aspiration to become a software engineer I have changed a lot, I have changed my view on many things multiple times and had many small reflections about what I think I value.
I value:
- Creative Commons and Free Software Licences (free in freedom, not price).
I am a supporter of the Open Source community and believe it is a good movement that will make the world better. It supports knowledge sharing, makes software better and gives the end user more freedom.
- Privacy and DPA 2018/GDPR
Privacy in my mind is a powerful tool that is under used. The amount of data we share is too much and is a very important issue as companies and individuals can use this data against us negatively.
After letting my Wattpad account decay for years (2017 - 2020), I have decided to revamp it and start it all over again with some changes.
Everything is Creative Commons, mainly Attributions, because information is not to be restricted but shared and developed on. Secondly I am going to be using this account to support and share my biggest project "The Hitch-hiker's Guide to Privacy" a guide to privacy in the information era (202X). It is a Guide that will tell you why you should care about privacy (with many points), how companies track us and correlate are data, how we can reduce this (from no compromise options to some compromise options), and further reading. This guide is not a one stop guide but a starting point onto any path you chose to take to improving your privacy.
Finally, expect there to be more references to my Country of origin (The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Norther Ireland) and its raining monarch (Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, Ireland and the British Dominions beyond the Seas Queen, Defender of the Faith).
