      You've heard the stories about the dark side of the internet—hackers, #gamergate, and online harassment—but they often seem distant. Zoe Quinn, a video game developer, once thought the same until her ex-boyfriend published a blog post filled with private information, half-truths, and lies, inciting online mobs against her. This led to the #gamergate movement, which resulted in hacking her accounts, stealing private photos, and threatening her life. Rather than retreating, Quinn chose to speak out against this toxic online culture and advocate for a safer internet. Since then, she has supported thousands through her organization, Crash Override Network, which addresses online abuse. Quinn's work includes helping victims secure their accounts and collaborating with tech companies and lawmakers to shape policy. Her experiences provide insight into the nature of online abuse, the responses from powerful institutions, and strategies for protecting digital spaces. Through her journey as both a target and an activist, Quinn highlights the profound impact of the internet on our lives and culture, offering practical advice for ensuring safety online.
