I haven’t discussed my work too much on #nostr
I serve #survivors of human #trafficking primarily. I’m trained in multiple states to serve survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence and human trafficking.
I serve survivors locally and I’ve proudly served the minor survivors of Twitter, two Epstein/Maxwell survivors and two of the Tate accusers as a Survivor Advocate as well as countless survivors around the globe via advocacy. Some of my work is very public. Much of it must remain private for safety reasons.
In January 2023, I received a national award called the Polaris Star Award for serving the minor survivors of Twitter. I was nominated by Lisa Haba, one of the lawyers currently representing the minor survivors of Twitter.
In December, I hosted a #Twitter Spaces with Elon #Musk and others working on the issue of detection and removal of child sexual exploitation on Twitter.

One hard line for me as a survivor advocate has been to NOT advocate for any solutions to removing illegal content that would violate digital #privacy rights or erode end-to-end #encryption
My first public stance in opposition to the anti-human trafficking movement was against the #Apple client side scanning. Snowden added my thoughts about that in his incredible article about that situation.
I have also spoken out against governments attacking #bitcoin using the very real crime of human trafficking as a Trojan horse to attack cryptocurrencies. All currencies are used for the crime, unfortunately.
My public advocacy work has been intentionally separate from any organization or institution. There are various reasons for this. I like to roll alone because then I’m the main target.
On a personal note, I have no problem what willing and consenting adults do. It’s none of my business.
I have a human rights approach to the internet. I believe that citizens around the globe deserve their inalienable right to speak freely. I’m against mass #surveillance at the hands of the government or anyone seeking power and control.
Why #nostr
Corporate #tech is broken. I couldn’t fix it so I started looking for solutions.
Do I think that Nostr will be perfect, no. I think that it will be free.
I’m here to support freedom tech that will give survivors the opportunity to share their experiences, strength, hope and resources in a permissionless space.
Here is a video that I made tying it all together. Enjoy! ♥️
