Don’t miss your chance to see Christopher Wylie at IP EXPO Manchester 2019

The New Yorker calls Christopher Wylie “a pink-haired, nose-ringed
oracle sent from the future.”
But he’s probably best known for his role in setting up – and then
taking down – the cyberwarfare firm Cambridge Analytica!
If that sounds familiar, then you’d be right as it’s become one of
the biggest data scandals of the last decade.
Cambridge Analytica used personal data collected from tens of
millions of Facebook users without their knowledge or permission and built sophisticated
models of user's personalities.
Raising ethical and privacy issues they used it for commercial
use, in violation of the Facebooks own data rules.
Channel 4 News broadcast secret recordings of CEO, Alexander Nix
boasting about using honey traps, fake news campaigns and operations with
former spies to swing election campaigns around the world!
The scandal has been linked to Donald Trump's presidential
campaign and the UK referendum on EU membership turning clicks into votes.
Interviews with Christopher Wylie blew the whistle on Cambridge
Analytica detailing how it was done, the blatant abuse of data and attitude
that it was just cyber-warfare and fair game!
How Christopher rocked Silicon Valley!
Christopher’s revelations
exposing the rampant misuse of data rocked Silicon Valley and forced numerous
Fortune 500 companies to overhaul cybersecurity and user privacy practices.
US Congress held
its first ever hearings on the impact of social media on democracy and Facebook
experienced the largest single-day share value drop in American corporate
history – twice.
His evidence also
exposed the deep links between the Alt-Right and Russian intelligence networks,
leading to major ongoing FBI and NCA investigations in the US and UK.

warfare have garnered audience’s attention.
