Diane Knudsen is a parent, advocate, and writer based in North Carolina. After losing her son Chris, she didn't retreat — she investigated. She documented. She organized a coalition of bereaved families, delivered evidence of intentional platform design to U.S. legislators, and became a named participant in the first landmark trial to hold Meta and Google liable for harm to children.
Her background in forensic accounting means she follows the money, reads the internal documents, and doesn't accept the press release version of events. Her background as a mother means none of it is abstract.
She is currently writing a memoir and is enrolled in investigative journalism coursework. She is represented by the Social Media Victims Law Center.
