My dad is good at sticking with stuff and he has a strong work ethic, which is imbued in me. Growing up, he would constantly ask what I was doing and was I achieving anything.

Privacy is dead, and social media holds the smoking gun.

The Internet was appealing partly because it was something I could do in bed and feel like I was achieving something. I had an operation when I was 13 and ended up with complications, so I was in and out of the hospital. The bottom line is you can get through health challenges. It's part of why I was so driven.

You have a responsibility when you have a large community.

We have this revolution that's happening in our lifetime. The Information Revolution is changing absolutely every industry and every part of life and society and behavior.

I kept my age quiet for a good few years. I didn't see it as a positive. I worked remotely, so I just didn't tell people.

We're living at a time when attention is the new currency.
