How Self-Service Analytics Creates a Major Shift In Product Mindset

I guess Amir meant that a traditional path for many companies in the past was to go with Microsoft Suite and then migrate to Google, while PwC sort of disrupted it and jumped straight to Google without using MS products. 

OpenSea: A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing?

Thanks for your comment, @asiapr. As a matter of fact, according to the OS Terms of Service, the sale of stolen items isn’t allowed on the platform. “When we are notified of potentially stolen items, or the item has suspicious activity in its transaction history, we **disable the ability to buy, sell, or transfer the items** using OpenSea's services to make sure we’re complying with legal requirements and protecting users“ (retrieved from the OS FAQ).

Robbie immediately reported and flagged the stolen assets and opened the ticket to notify support. However, instead of acting in compliance with their own ToS, the support team took ages to reply, was unsupportive, and locked his account for more than three months, preventing him from trading other non-affected NFTs. This triggers a question – how can a company that positions itself as a progressive web3 brand have such ineffective practices when protecting NFT owners from scam? And how sure can you be that if someone snatches your high-value asset, the platform you rely on so much will not ban you for days, weeks, or months instead of helping you weather the storm and avoid financial damage?

Blockchain in the Sex Industry: Light at the End of the Tunnel?

Thanks for your comment, Monica. Answering your question, although blockchain facilitates transaction anonymity within human trafficking, it's also used to "fight fire with fire."

While there are no personal identifiers, there are methods to identify the address owner, including:

* analyzing blockchain activity for patterns that can give insight into a user's identity, 
* using blockchain tracking tools, or
* using data obtained from regulated cryptocurrency exchanges that collect customer data under growing KYC and AML regulations.

Using the information collected by crypto companies through advanced data analysis systems and artificial intelligence, we can better understand the scope, geography, and population of victims and combat modern slavery more effectively.
