About
Hi, my name is Paweł Pokrywka and you are reading my blog.
My motivation
I believe we deserve better privacy, better security, better institutions, and we should fight for more freedom. There are some principles, ideas, and projects I want to promote.
On a few occasions, people wanted to know more about my research or the projects I'm working on. I want to share my research and contribute to the community.
We need each other. I want to connect with like-minded people to build great things together.
I also have some personal development goals, including improving my English and fighting my perfectionism. Expect errors in the text.
How & what?
Building on my over twenty years of experience in IT, my innate curiosity, creativity, and my desire for continuous growth, I decided to start a blog.
I write mainly on privacy, security, and blockchain-related topics.
