Always honored to be back at @CosicBe where I'll be giving a guest lecture to students on "Introduction to Blockchain and Privacy" tomorrow - thanks to @InessBeng.!
Any subjects in particular people want to know more about?

Nothing is more fragile for a minority than reliance on protection from foreign powers (Maronites w/France, Orthodox w/Russia, Shiites w/Iran, Maghrebi Jews w/France).
It prevents local integration & the minoriry will be left hanging when inevitably dumped by the foreign power.
Our last talk of the IMPACT workshop @NDSSSymposium is by @houmansadr on Internet Censorship and its intersection with metadata privacy.
During the workshop #IMPACT I am co-organizing @NDSSSymposium, we had an amazing keynote by Sofia Celi on PIR, Foundations and Foundations, Frontiers, and Future Directions for Search and Recommendation Systems! I learned a lot, thank you @claucece
If you're attending @NDSSSymposium , make sure to also attend our workshop on metadata privacy, IMPACT. Not only did we receive cool papers, but we also have very interesting keynotes by @claucece and @houmansadr

Just because it isn’t in the headlines anymore, doesn’t mean the killing of innocents in Gaza has stopped.
Don’t look away.
Horrific Air strike on Gaza school, breaking all norms of international humanitarian law, slaughters at least 16 people

Right now tens of thousands of children in Gaza are facing starvation, malnutrition, and famine.
And Congressional leadership thinks it’s okay to invite war criminal Netanyahu to address Congress?
No. Unacceptable.
How can we talk about science if we can't even say the truth about this ethnic cleansing that is happening before our eyes?

Looking forward to this lecture which will be part of the Advanced Privacy Course I am teaching @CosicBe

In South Africa, white settlers regularly cited the fear that if Black South Africans were given equality “the next thing they’d do is come into our homes and kill us in our beds.”
This line is tired colonial anxiety and amounts to nothing more than projection.

"A pro democracy activist" who has no problem accepting a job from which someone got fired because he denounced a government, who is a state department and who is now in the board of @signalapp (literally one of the few tools *actual* activists have).

The Israeli TV is saying that they killed 7546 “terrorists”.
I happen to know 14 of these terrorists.
These are my nieces and nephews whose age range between 1 to 13 years.

I was supposed to be in Gaza at Israa University soon, giving a keynote on teaching cryptocurrency, but I have lost touch with the conference organizers who are at this point are possibly murdered by the indiscriminate bombings by the Israeli military.

I stuck the 🇵🇸 flag outside my car window the whole time while my brother drove us to Toronto last night. Suddenly, a white man in the car next to us rolled down his window to talk. I was scared only for him to yell "I'm going to the protest too! Follow me, I'll get you parking."
