A must read on Peter Thiel! „An ideology bordering on fascism!“ time.com/6092844/peter-…
I will devote myself to strengthen the public discourse about the political alternatives to dangerous corporate power of big tech in the area of finance. Africa is a laboratory for FinTech.
Modern day capitalism was build by exploiting the labour, the bodies and resources of millions of Africans. Again millions of underbanked Africans with no access to decent financial services are being deprived of their most intimate data.
