The idea behind Everything TMT is simple: make sure everyone has some way to understand where they stand in a tech-obsessed world. What can they do? How are they protected? Is there a way for them to lend their voice?
I'm Siddharth Aiyar, a CIPP/E certified graduate from National Law University Odisha. I started reading about technology law out of pure curiosity, and quickly realised how complex, fragmented, and constantly evolving the space really is. What began as a niche academic interest slowly turned into a deeper engagement with how law interacts with the digital systems we use every day.
Over the last few years, I've explored different corners of TMT law, from intermediary liability and digital privacy to media regulation and platform governance. I've interned with policy teams and legal organisations working in the tech space, and spent a fair amount of time trying to make sense of dense legislation, case law, and regulatory policy. That effort eventually shaped Everything TMT: a public-facing project aimed at breaking down the law in a way that's accessible but still legally rigorous.
Outside of this project, I'm also interested in the role of technology in shaping constitutional rights, the future of digital governance, and the possibility of pursuing tech law and policy somewhere down the line. Right now, I'm mostly reading, writing, and learning, and figuring things out as I go.
Apart from academics, I love football, South Indian food and Green Day (in no particular order). If you have any suggestions, queries or just want to discuss Tech Law (or football, Green Day or South Indian food, your call), I would love to hear from you!
