Speaking Freely: Dr. Jean Linis-Dinco
"I refuse to accept a world where tech is just another tool for corporate gain. I fight for technologies and policies that put people before profit and justice before convenience."
"My ancestors fought for the freedom of the Filipino people against Spanish colonial rule, before we became subjugated once again, this time under the United States for another 48 years."
Jean Linis-Dinco is an activist-researcher focused on human rights and technology. Her experiences with inequality in the Philippines drive her commitment to challenge oppressive systems. She earned a PhD in Cybersecurity, revealing how governments misuse propaganda during crises. Currently, she serves as the Digital Rights Advisor for the Manushya Foundation, a women-led organization that collaborates with activists to promote human rights. Jean emphasizes the importance of prioritizing people over profit in technology and policy.
