I’m delighted to welcome to the TLF my colleague Adam Marcus, Research Fellow & Senior Technologist at The Progress & Freedom Foundation. Adam’s already written a few posts here on the TLF about edge caching and cloud computing—cross-posted over the last few months by Adam Thierer and me. He also appeared on TechPolicy Weekly 38 to discuss “The Google Kerfuffle — Edge Caching & Net Neutrality.”
Adam (a/k/a “Marcus”) brings an exceptional technological sophistication to bear on policy issues. He’s already been a real asset to our work at PFF as a sort of “technical ombudsman,” helping us delve into the nitty-gritty details behind the debates. I hope he’ll play somewhat the same role here on the TLF: keeping us honest and checking our facts.
But he’s not just another geek: With a J.D. from Santa Clara University and an MA in Communications, Culture & Technology from Georgetown University, Adam has lots to say about the legal and policy issues covered by the TLF.
I hope you all enjoy getting to know him—whether through the blog or in person at our semi-regular Alcohol Liberation Fronts—as much as I have.
