Hi! I’m the founder and current CEO of DuckDuckGo, but this newsletter shares my personal views and does not speak for the company. I post on our company blog for that.
Here, I mainly write on tech, policy, and economics, though I’d be happy to take your questions and consider posting responses to them too.
I’m also the co-author of Super Thinking (2019) and Traction (2015), as well as a more recent essay called The Great Race (2025).
Before that, I studied physics (2001) and technology policy (2005) at MIT.
