When a Pink-Haired Hacker Discovered He'd Built Democracy's Weapon of Self-Destruction
What would you do if you realized the tools you created were being used to manipulate millions? Christopher Wylie never imagined his work would end up undermining democracy itself. A pink-haired, gay, liberal Canadian who grew up wheelchair-bound on Vancouver Island, he found refuge in computer labs where physical limitations disappeared. By thirteen, he was coding websites, discovering a power that transcended his body. At fifteen, attending an international college transformed his worldview-his roommate had survived the Rwandan genocide, and he witnessed Israeli and Palestinian classmates debate their conflict. These experiences awakened something profound: as a gay teenager in a wheelchair, his very existence was political. Society wasn't built for people like him, and his challenges weren't just personal-they were systemic. This understanding drove him toward political engagement, eventually landing him a job in Canada's Parliament at eighteen. Before heading to Ottawa, he spent a formative summer in Montreal's hacker spaces, where French Canadian techno-anarchists taught him a philosophy that would prove fateful: no system is absolute, nothing is impenetrable, and barriers are merely dares.
