Robert Wayne spent three decades as a systems architect and engineer for IBM (Tivoli Systems), the U.S. Military, state and federal government agencies, including ten years as a virtual CISO. After recognizing that systems designed to serve people had inverted to consume them, he wrote The Hidden Forces — a blueprint for reclaiming what was taken. He went on to found the Robert Wayne Human Reclamation Project (RWHRP), a nonprofit developing intellectual frameworks and practical tools for a Freed Society, including democratized AI and simplified technology to help ordinary people reclaim autonomy and build freed communities. He is a military veteran who writes on humanity, technology, and security.
