My Privacy Philosophy
"I built this site on edge computing not just for performance, but for privacy. By processing data at the edge and avoiding traditional server architectures, we minimize data collection and exposure by design. Privacy isn't a feature I bolted on—it's fundamental to the architecture."
— Kurt Overmier
