History: DOB 2001-01-03, Male. Completed schooling in Delhi 2018, Graduated IIT Delhi biochem engg BTech+MTech 2023. Worked at cryptocurrency startup Rari Capital. Have basic skills in software, finance, biotech and idk what else.

Current topics of interest: history and future of technology, mass surveillance

Current goals: I'm currently still figuring out which project I should long-term devote myself to.

I'm figuring out how to reduce personal risk involved in projects such as Wikileaks and SecureDrop by distributing the system to more actors.
I'm particularly interested in enabling whistleblowers of companies trying to build superintelligent AI. I think building superintelligent AI may be possible by 2030 and could lead to bad outcomes for the world.
