About

Right to Obscurity is an independent publication about digital privacy, personal freedom, and the growing challenge of living without being watched.

I started this site in February 2026 because I believe we’re losing something fundamental: the ability to move through life without being tracked, recorded, or remembered by systems we never consented to. This isn’t just about data breaches or hacking. It’s about how constant surveillance changes who we are—what we search for, what we say online, even how we think about ourselves.

The name comes from a simple idea: people should have the ability to move, think, and exist without being tracked, monitored, or catalogued. This isn’t confined to the digital realm. It shapes how we behave in everyday life; what we search for, what we say, even how we think.

In a world where everything is saved, where every click is stored and every location logged, obscurity is no longer the default. It has to be defended.

This isn’t a blog about going off the grid. It’s about dignity. About having space to explore ideas, make mistakes, or simply live without your life being turned into a permanent data trail.

I write about cybersecurity, digital rights, surveillance policy, and the quiet ways people reclaim control. Some posts look at how the technology works. Others focus on ethics, law, or the everyday impact of living in a world that remembers too much. My goal is to be clear, accurate, and thoughtful. Not fear-driven.

This site is supported by readers like you. There are no ads, no third-party trackers, and no analytics. We do not collect data about our readers. That’s by design.

Your support helps keep the site running and allows me to contribute to organizations working to protect digital freedoms.

Independent journalism matters now more than ever. If you believe in the right to be forgotten, the right to change your mind, or simply the right to be left alone, you’re helping to sustain a space where those values still matter.

Thank you for being here.
