About Me

I am @c0debabe@hackers.town — hacker as in computer wizard, hacker as in tinker. Hacker as in I have a 3D printer and make stuff. Hacker as in I make browser plug-ins to mess with advertising.

Hacking is not a crime. A hacker is not by default a cyber criminal.

I ask why a lot. I want to understand how things work and why things work they way they do. I want to grok what I'm doing, not do them simply because I was told to. Folks tells me this is a strength but it also means I butt heads with folks in organizations that don't value you transparency, open communication, and best practices.
