Blockchain Analysis or Financial Surveillance?

Well-known podcast host Peter McCormack, who is behind "What Bitcoin Did" and "Defiance" shows, moderates a discussion between Alex Gladstein, Chief Strategy Officer at the Human Rights Foundation, and Dr. Tom Robinson, co-founder and Chief Data Officer at Elliptic.

In this heated debate, they argue whether blockchain analysis is financial surveillance, it's pros and cons, and whether chain analysis firms are dangerous for basic human rights.

The talk was recorded during Mainnet 2020 conference, which took place on June 1-3, 2020.
