“Privacy is a human right and I think we need to be proud of it.” As the Chief Strategy Officer of the Human Rights Foundation, Alex Gladstein, has made it his life’s goal to be sure that everyone, regardless of nationality, is treated with dignity and afforded their basic human rights, including privacy.
