Christopher Wylie Biography

Christopher Wylie is one of the most popular and richest Researcher who was born on June 19, 1989 in Victoria, Canada. Christopher Wylie (born 19 June 1989) is a Canadian consultant in data who has worked previously at Cambridge Analytica, a political consulting firm headed by Alexander Nix.

In 2010 when he was 20 he began his studies in legal studies at the London School of Economics, receiving the degree of an LLB in 2013. He specialized in media, technology and IP law. He also was presented with the Dechert Prize for Property Law. In the time he was an undergraduate, he been employed as a microtargeting analyst and digital campaign strategy for Liberal Democrats in the UK however his contract with a fixed term was not renewed. One ex-colleague explained “We did not renew his contract because he is a compulsive bullsh*tter and doesn’t know what he’s talking about”. In 2013, he was enrolled in an PhD in the field of predicting trends in fashion from the University of the Arts London and then left when he was employed by SCL Elections. Later, he obtained a master’s degree in political Management from George Washington University in Washington D.C.

In December 2014, Wylie registered Eunoia Technologies Inc in the tax haven of Delaware. In May 2015, a wholly owned UK subsidiary of Eunoia was registered in the UK as Eunoia Technologies Ltd. The name “Eunoia” meant “beautiful thinking” in ancient Greek, and the company offered election-related consultancy services including “psychographic microtargeting”, “multi-agent system voter behaviour simulation”, and “data & communications management”.

In 2014, Wylie co-founded Eunoia Technologies along with former SCL/Cambridge Analytica senior staff Brent Clickard, Mark Gettleson and Tadas Jucikas. In describing his ambitions for developing Eunoia, Wylie stated “I want to build the NSA’s wet dream”. Eunoia Technologies has been criticized for the similar psychographic profiling tactics used by Cambridge Analytica, using the same dataset shared by Alexander Kogan.

After graduating from high school Wylie relocated to Ottawa and began working in “a short stint” in the office of his MP, Keith Martin. While working in Martin’s office, he worked his executive assistant Jeff Silvester, who was later hired by Wylie to establish AggregateIQ. In the next year, he was offered an entry-level job at the offices of Canadian opposition leader Michael Ignatieff, at the age of 17. He later “lost his job” in 2009 “in major part due to the fact that the idea was a new variant of the controversial technique for data harvesting. The idea was considered to be too intrusive and raised questions with the Liberals and they refused to engage with the idea. Wylie’s suggested data-collection strategy frightened official members of the party”, CBC reported, and quoting a Liberal Party colleague as saying “Let’s claim that he faced boundaries on data in the early days. He presented an older version of the Cambridge Analytica data-harvesting operation] to us in 2009 and we replied”No.”‘

Wylie ceased working with SCL in 2014 to found his own company, Eunoia Technologies. A subsequent QC’s report by Julian Malins, based on access to SCL/Cambridge Analytica’s records, queried substantial parts of Wylie’s account of his time at SCL, and the timing and circumstances of his departure. It states that he was never the company’s “director of research” as claimed (a role which did not exist within the company), but that his employment contract made it clear that he was hired as a part-time “intern” on a student visa, limited to 19 hours of work a week; it queried his claim that he worked at the company until late 2014, quoting his resignation emails which stated that he left on 10 July 2014; it concludes that there was no evidence to support his claim to being a “founder” of Cambridge Analytica; and that contrary to his claims to have resigned in disgust at the company’s practices, contemporary correspondence “does not suggest that, at least as at the end of his engagement with SCL, he had any qualms about the work he had been doing at SCL or helping others to do.”

He was a volunteer in 2008 and worked in his presidential campaign for Barack Obama, learning about microtargeting from Obama adviser to the campaign Ken Strasma, although there was some debate about whether he had the position of a senior presidential campaigner as is sometimes claimed or if he had “a junior-level data entry role” as an individual volunteer. He claims that he taught himself to code when he was 19.

In 2013, Wylie began working as a contractor for SCL Elections, and its offshoot for American elections (later renamed Cambridge Analytica), an international consultancy specialising in data-driven psychographic targeting in elections.

During his time at SCL, Wylie worked for American Republican candidates affiliated with the party’s “Tea Party” wing in the 2014 United States elections; and on disinformation campaigns for political parties in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and the Caribbean. Wylie’s research work included message-testing work for Steve Bannon on building a wall on the American-Mexican border, and he later recounted, “My ears perked up when I [later] started hearing some of these things like ‘drain the swamp’ or ‘build the wall’ or ‘the deep state’ because these were all narratives that had come out from the research that we were doing,” and that the wall “is not really about stopping immigrants. It’s to embody separation. If you can embody that separation and you can further distance in the minds of Americans us here in America and them elsewhere, even if it is just across a river, or just across a desert, then you have won that culture war.”

From 2015, Wylie and Gettleson became embroiled in litigation with Cambridge Analytica’s parent company, the SCL Group, with SCL alleging that Eunoia had infringed SCL’s intellectual property, had misappropriated SCL’s data, had attempted to ‘poach’ other SCL contractors, and had attempted to ‘poach’ SCL’s clients. Wylie elaborated on the Eunoia allegations when denying them: “They tried to sue me over their claims that I was somehow trying to steal their clients, or to somehow try to interfere with their contractual relations with other employees, or what have you.” SCL later claimed that Eunoia had been “the subject of restraining undertakings to prevent the misuse of the company’s intellectual property”. A QC’s report noted:

Upon departing from SCL in 2014, Wylie took with him several hundred pages of sensitive company documents, along with a copy of the complete facebook dataset of 87 million individuals. At a 2018 Q&A session, “Wylie appeared visibly wrong-footed when asked why he had obtained so much compromising material on Cambridge Analytica prior to his departure, and why he held onto it for three years, and seemed to visibly struggle to provide any clear answer.”

During the Easter of 2015, two of Wylie’s Eunoia colleagues who had joined him from SCL, Tadas Jucikas and Mark Gettleson, flew to New York to meet Donald Trump’s then-campaign manager on his 2016 presidential bid, Corey Lewandowski, for a meeting in a Central Park hotel. They pitched for Eunoia to work on the 2016 Trump presidential campaign, but were ultimately unsuccessful. The approach to the Trump campaign was made with Wylie’s knowledge as CEO of Eunoia, and reportedly had his blessing.
