Bruce Schneier is a Lecturer in Public Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School and a Fellow at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society, called a "security guru" by the Economist. He is the New York Times bestselling author of 14 books, including A Hacker's Mind, and hundreds of influential papers and essays. We sat down with him to discuss data protection policies in the United States, and how he envisions future regulatory change surrounding artificial intelligence.
