Thanks to everyone reading me recently (or at all)!
I'm a former #nonprofit tech worker from Mexico, current sociotechnical scholar at MIT (#STS or Science, Technology, and Society -- or Science and Technology Studies!). I study media and IT, especially as they contribute to public interest and social change.
My current work: What does it entail to challenge #surveillance in a place where #privacy is not to be expected? Some of my ethnographic fieldwork notes from MX https://blog.castac.org/2024/08/challenging-normalized-surveillance-birds-on-the-wire-surveillance-in-mexico/

In response to this post@nazgul I was recommended a nasal spray for protection as well… Was never able to locate it in the US or Mexico
@marielgm If you search for that one you'll find online vendors.
