Ronald James Deibert OC OOnt[1] (born 1964)[2] is a Canadian professor of political science, philosopher, founder and director of the Citizen Lab at the Munk School of Global Affairs, University of Toronto.[3]

The Citizen Lab

Main article: Citizen Lab

As founder and director of the Citizen Lab, Deibert has overseen and been a contributing author to more than 170 reports[5] covering research on cyber espionage, commercial spyware, Internet censorship, and human rights. The Citizen Lab has been remarkably effective in holding governments and private-sector firms accountable for using information technology to endanger people. Researchers from the Citizen Lab contribute to the global understanding of spyware abuse through their expertise. Writing for the Guardian in 2021, John Naughton said "Deibert has built a formidable team that functions as a kind of National Security Agency for civil society."[6]

Massey Lectures

In 2020, he gave the annual Massey Lectures for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and they were published in book form under the title Reset: Reclaiming the Internet for Civil Society.[7] The book won the 2021 Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing.[8][9][10]

Other work

Deibert presently serves on the editorial boards of the journals International Political Sociology,[11] Explorations in Media Ecology,[12] Review of Policy Research,[13] Journal of Global Security Studies,[14] and Astropolitics.[15] He has served on the advisory boards of Access Now, Privacy International, the technical advisory groups of Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, and is currently on the advisory boards of PEN Canada[16] and the Design 4 Democracy Coalition, the steering committee of the World Movement for Democracy, the advisory board for the Citizen Clinic at the University of California, Berkeley, and co-chair of the University of Toronto's Information Security Council.
