海纜斷光到底會怎樣？台灣常用網站的斷網韌性檢測

開放文化基金會海纜專案研究員，G0v 韌性松 / Mozilla 貢獻者，摩茲工寮社群空間 keyholder。近期，Irvin 的興趣在理解數位政策與法規，對於網路平台及民主發展的影響，以及試圖深掘「海纜斷光，到底會怎麼樣？」的答案。

Irvin 同時是前端工程師與開源社群參與者。自 2011 年起擔任 Mozilla 台灣社群聯絡人，負責跨國志工與專案協調，並共同管理摩茲工寮社群空間。他曾在女人迷 (womany.net) 負責網站前端架構規劃，並協助設計 DEI 企業評鑑等策略產品，推動臺灣職場平權與多元包容。Irvin 曾協助將國台語及多個族語納入 Common Voice 開源語音庫，建立釋出第一套免費且自由的台灣原住民多族語音資料集。

Irvin 關心數位政策與法規對網路及民主發展的影響，今年起亦協助舉辦每月定期「g0v 韌性松」，關注國際海纜斷線對社會帶來的挑戰。

Irvin Chen is a Submarine Cable Researcher at the Open Culture Foundation (OCF) and an active contributor to the g0v and Mozilla Community. He is also a keyholder of the MozTW Community Space, where he supports community collaboration and open technology initiatives.

Irvin is both a frontend engineer and an open source community builder. He has served as a Mozilla Taiwan Community Liaison since early '2000, coordinating international volunteers and projects as a member of the Mozilla Reps Council. He was previously responsible for frontend architecture at womany.net, where he contributed to the development of DEI-focused strategic products to promote workplace equality and inclusion.

He has contributed to Mozilla Common Voice by helping incorporate Taiwanese languages, including Taiwanese Hokkien and Formosan Indigenous languages, into open speech datasets, helping create the first freely available multi-Indigenous speech corpus of Taiwan.

In recent years, Irvin has focused on understanding how digital policies and regulations shape the Internet ecosystem and democratic development. Irvin helps organize the monthly g0v Digital Resilience Hackathon, and is currently focusing on a critical question: what actually happens when submarine cables go dark, the societal impact and broader digital resilience challenges.
