Not to indulge the troll, but Arvind Narayanan is an (associate) professor of CS at Princeton and is one of the foremost researchers in the field on topics of ML/data privacy and ethics [0]. His papers/talks/tweets regularly attract attention on HN [1]. That you're judging the talk based on which conferences the author hasn't published in says more about your ignorance of the STS field than it does about the author's knowledge of the topic. This is top-notch content!

It seems his main research focus is poking holes in popular tech, especially when he is the main author.

There are a lot of holes to poke, and not enough pokers.
