Privacy Pirates   Born a patriot, Dr. Leslie Gruis spent 30 years as a mathematician and intelligence officer at the National Security Agency, where she helped develop technology solutions that balanced national security with civil rights. She later served at U.S. Cyber Command and the National Intelligence Council. Now retired, she writes and speaks on privacy, surveillance, and democracy—making complex topics accessible for everyday Americans. Dr. Gruis is the author of Privacy: Past, Present, and Future; The Privacy Pirates, and a forthcoming third book. She also mentors K–12 STEM students, with a special focus on middle school girls.   The Education Innovators Podcast is a set of conversations between Eric Byron and guests from all aspects of education around the world. We look for innovative ideas and practical examples of things happening in schools and learning environments that are of interest to teachers, corporate trainers, school administrators, EdTech providers, students, parents, and anyone else interested in education.     Links:   Dr Leslie Gruis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leslie-gruis-b8060b141/ https://lngruis.ag-sites.net/index.htm   The Privacy Pirates: https://www.amazon.com/Privacy-Pirates-Being-Stolen-About/dp/168053825X   The Education Innovators Podcast Facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61551034804742   The Education Innovators Podcast YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLru4kYugzLerU1S8mQu2Jo2-jX6H_3kd3   The Human Intelligence movement: https://www.humanintelligencemovement.org/   This podcast is produced entirely by Eric Byron.
