ALBERTO DANIEL HILL

Alberto Daniel Hill, cybersecurity expert and digital rights advocate, publicly denounces the use of the so‑called “Protocol of Silence” in Uruguay: a mechanism where private corporations and media outlets amplify prefabricated narratives to cover up massive vulnerabilities in state systems. The current case of a 19‑year‑old detainee mirrors the same logic Hill experienced in 2017, when he was used as a scapegoat to hide basic technical failures in the country’s digital infrastructure.
