Sarah Jamie Lewis

Sarah Jamie Lewis is an anonymity and privacy researcher with a special interest in the privacy protocols (or lack thereof) of sex toys [1][2] who has been cited in academic research.[3][4] Not only are there are very real ethical considerations associated with this technology, [5] but the law has not caught up with it either, so she notes of the burgeoning field of onion dildonics that "We are currently sprinting into this world of connected sex toys and connected sex tech without regards to what consent, privacy, or security means in that context..." and recommends "100% encrypted peer to peer cyber sex over tor hidden services." [6] More generally, due to the litigious environment in which computer security researchers operate Lewis has opted to build bespoke secure systems rather than fix broken systems.[7]
