Lea Kissner is back at her alma mater, the University of California at Berkeley, armed with a crisp gray blazer, a slide deck, and a laptop with a 'My Other Car Is A Pynchon Novel' sticker on it. Since graduating in 2002, she's earned a PhD at Carnegie Mellon in cryptography and worked her way up at Google, where she manages user privacy and tries to keep things from breaking. She's here to tell a hall of computer science students how she did it—and also how to create privacy-protective systems at a scale that you won't find outside a handful of massive tech companies.

Just a PR stunt. Maybe she thinks she has an important position as a woman in technology, and a privacy team in a company dedicated to violating privacy is a great place to put diversity hires.

Who could criticize Google for privacy violations when they have a whole division that is dedicated to protecting privacy? You are probably a sexist if you do. Once they replace her with a black tranny you'll really be screwed.
