Meet Alex, a 25-year-old undergraduate student in the Faculty of Arts at the University of Waterloo, who has a fascination with conspiracy theories and the intersection of technology and surveillance. Growing up in a small town with limited resources, Alex transitioned to university life seeking truth and empowerment through knowledge. While balancing school and part-time work, they often engage in online discussions about social issues, government transparency, and personal freedom. However, their deep interest sometimes leads them down the rabbit hole of paranoia, reflecting their ongoing struggle to distinguish between fact and fiction in an increasingly complex world.
