Natasha Lomas is an experienced technology journalist with nearly two decades of experience covering digital issues and the tech industry. She previously served as a senior reporter for TechCrunch from September 2012 to April 2025, where she was based in Europe and became one of the publication's most prominent voices on privacy, data protection, and regulatory issues. Before joining TechCrunch, she spent time reviewing smartphones for CNET UK and over five years covering business technology for silicon.com (now folded into TechRepublic), focusing on mobile and wireless, telecoms & networking, and IT skills issues. She has also freelanced for prestigious organizations including The Guardian and the BBC. Lomas holds a First Class degree in English from Cambridge University and an MA in journalism from Goldsmiths College, University of London.

Her writing style is analytical and thorough, particularly when covering complex regulatory and privacy topics.
