Backstage at the Greater Reset with Ramiro Romani

Ramiro Romani is a software developer and advocate for personal liberty, Internet security and privacy. His current project is Take Back Our Tech, a site which shows people the practical steps for that security and privacy. Ramiro helps maintain the website for Freedom Cells, which is a site where people can get together and build survival skills, agricultural skills and communities. He also was working behind the scenes at the two Greater Reset events, which were full of presentations to help people find solutions to create more liberty in their own lives.

In this interview, Ramiro tells us the story of how, years ago, he faced a difficult challenge in software development and decided to walk away. Then he tells the story of facing a similarly difficult challenge working on The Greater Reset, with what seemed to be Chinese hackers infiltrating the site and changing it to show advertisements.

That time, Ramiro decided to take the challenge head-on, working well into the night in order to improve the security of the site to make sure the conference was broadcast around the world. We find out the factors in his mentality that made the difference – why Ramiro was so determined to live up to the hopes and expectations of his friends and colleagues, and the kind of grit it takes to make such a commitment.
