Our Vision
At Privaceum, our vision is to create a privacy trust protocol that lets privacy be possible again using the power of web3. The blockchain is a key part of this vision. By using the blockchain, we can standardize the delivery and processing of privacy preferences, mediate conflicts between groups and individuals based on contextual norms, and monitor device compliance—all without reducing the usefulness of these devices for their intended purposes.
We believe that realigning data and privacy control with individual privacy expectations will bring a new level of interoperability and trust between people and organizations that care about privacy, re-energize the privacy conversation and, ultimately, imbue the Technosphere with a means of understanding and communicating human values across many domains.
The Privaceum Team
Kevin L. Miller
Founder, CEO, Vision
An attorney, author, inventor, researcher, Microsoft veteran, and entrepreneur, Kevin has over 25 years of experience in software engineering/architecture and development management. His work with Microsoft in the late 1990s helped address key scalability and state management problems in web and data services, experiences he shared in his book Professional NT Services (Wiley/Wrox 1998). The book became a standard reference text for the implementation of highly scalable multi-tiered systems.
After leaving Microsoft and co-founding several successful technology startups, Kevin became interested in the impact of technological advances on law, policy, legal automation, and human rights. He obtained a J.D. and has practiced IP, data privacy, and startup law for several years. He has written widely about surveillance and predictive policing, the privacy impacts of new technologies, algorithmic accountability and fairness, and legal and ethical issues in cyberwar. Kevin’s original research on privacy architectures converged with his interest in blockchain to form the foundational ideas for Privaceum.
Kevin is a registered patent attorney with a B.A. in Philosophy and Computer Science, an MBA, and a J.D. from the University of Florida; he is a Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer and is a Consensys Certified Blockchain Developer. He also holds seven patents in blockchain technologies.
