Hi I'm Peter's Website :]


And hi I'm Peter. Here are a few of my favourite things I've spent time on:

SLOPES
Using embeddings to understand Internet censorship data by revealing topics in millions of URLs that generalized classifiers would miss

SHIRT
Writing about things like hacking the Dutch Government for a t-shirt, data privacy, interpreting news/social media, and the responsibility we have when releasing tech

WHERE
Making a series of puzzles themed around historical Quacks to teach players to recognize info manipulation tactics

As you can probably guess from my projects, I care a lot about how technology impacts people!

I believe people are tired of having their trust abused at every level of interaction with technology— and that this mistrust has spilled over into everyday human interactions. Right now I'm working on applying the mindset learned from technical security work more broadly towards how the flow of information affects groups.

I'm currently studying Systems Design Engineering at uWaterloo.
