Meet Alex, a 24-year-old environmental studies student at the University of Waterloo who has a penchant for conspiracy theories and alternative perspectives on technology. Growing up in a small town, Alex developed a fascination with urban myths and the unseen powers at play in society, leading them to question everything from government surveillance to the ethics of artificial intelligence. Often seen with a worn-out notebook filled with thoughts on social justice and the implications of modern technology, Alex channels their curiosity into activism and blogs about digital privacy while navigating the busy campus life.
