This Developer Built an App That Doesn't Spy on You

Sep 30, 2025

Rizel Scarlet (Staff Developer Advocate at Block) tackled a problem every developer should care about: apps that spy on users before they even know they need the service.

Her solution? Build a privacy-first pregnancy app using AI agents and decentralized web nodes. This isn't just about pregnancy apps - it's about the future of user data ownership.

🔥 What Rizel Covers in This GitKon Talk:

  • Why AI agents ≠ LLMs (and why it matters for developers)
  • Hands-on demo with Goose vs GitHub Copilot
  • Decentralized Web Nodes: You own your data, not Big Tech
  • Real development workflow (including when AI fails)
  • Privacy-by-design architecture patterns
