## Overview
My name is Sam Al-Sapti. I'm a 6th semester Software Development B.Sc. student
at the IT-University of Copenhagen. My main interests are backend development,
DevOps, DevSecOps, IT security, open-source and Linux.
Furthermore, I'm an advocate for online privacy, I'm against attention economy
and surveillance capitalism, I'm a big supporter of the Free Software movement,
I'm a digital minimalist, and I'm a member of [data.coop](https://data.coop)
(I'm also one of the system administrators). Also, you won't find me on
[Facebook](https://fsf.org/fb) or any other social media platform (except for
[LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-a-dev/), but that's not really a
social media platform).
