Meg is a Provost's Distinguished Associate Professor in the Communication, Culture & Technology program at Georgetown University where she researches rules and technological change with a focus on privacy and automation. She’s also a core faculty member of the Science, Technology, and International Affairs program in Georgetown's School of Foreign Service and a faculty affiliate with the Institute for Technology Law & Policy at Georgetown Law Center.
Ctrl+Z: The Right to be Forgotten, Meg’s first book, is about the social, legal, and technical issues surrounding digital oblivion. Her second book project, The Character of Consent: The History of Cookies and Future of Technology Policy, tells the transatlantic history of digital consent through the lens of a familiar technical object. She's also edited a volume with Amanda Levendowski called Feminist Cyberlaw that explores how gender, race, sexuality and disability shape cyberspace and the laws that govern it.
Meg is currently developing "the new family privacy," which considers the ways changes in reproduction, education, social development, eldercare, and genealogy come together as a currently disparate but potentially powerful source of contemporary privacy practice. And also collaborates with Georgetown scholars Julie Cohen and Paul Ohm on a project to overhaul the administrative state called Redesigning the Governance Stack .
