What if the first 80% of users flocking to a new digital ID system are hackers and fraudsters? Is this technology the dawn of a dystopian future, or are the risks just overhyped?In this episode, I’m talking to Yana Afanasieva, an expert in financial regulation, FinTech and data privacy. Yana led regional compliance teams at Amazon and PayPal in Europe, where she gained extensive experience and inside knowledge of Big Tech. Today we want to discuss Digital IDs, not least because the UK has rolled out a project and the Swiss also just voted for a digital ID to become a reality.
