Portrait of Olubukola Familoni
Hello, I'm Olubukola.

Privacy, AI, and the questions in between.

I'm a lawyer by training, qualified in Nigeria with a master's in technology law from the University of Sussex, now working in data protection and AI governance. I write about what responsible technology looks like in practice, and why privacy done well is something organisations can build trust on.

How I think about it

Privacy shouldn't be the reason good ideas stall, or the step skipped to ship them faster.

What I work on and think about

Privacy in practiceHow the work actually gets done, beyond the policy document.
Where privacy meets AIWhat a privacy review covers, and what an AI governance check still needs to.
Across bordersEurope, Africa, the UK and North America: shared principles, different rules.
Privacy as trustPrivacy as something a business can win customers on.
