Most of my writing over the last decade was targeted at decision makers, taking the form of briefs, presentations, and memo not intended for public consumption.

#DearMark
In April 2018, I led Myanmar civil society’s effort to call out Mark Zuckerberg for his lies regarding Facebook’s approach to detection and risk mitigation in Myanmar.

#PushBackUNESCO
In May 2023, I coordinated a push back from Asian civil society on the UNESCO Guidelines for The Governance Of Digital Platforms, which was echoed by civil society across the world and fueled additional (though still insufficient) refinements to the Guidelines.
