NEW STUDY: National survey finds Americans agree on financial privacy. Republicans, Democrats, and Independents landed within a few points of each other on almost every question about who should see their financial data. What the study found: - 68% want an opt-in standard. Their data should never be collected, or gathered only with their explicit consent. - Just 1 in 8 would accept any government access to it. - 79% would limit access to themselves and their bank alone. - 74% would leave an institution after a serious privacy violation. "Americans of every political stripe agree that their financial data belongs to them," said report co-author Sarah Kreps, Director of the Cornell Tech Policy Institute and a BPI Senior Fellow.

In Part I of our series on the Bitcoin Learning Center in Chiang Mai, Thailand, we looked at how the center's co-founders — @JimmyKostro and Fai — met and why they decided to open the center. In Part II, we take a closer look at what the center facilities, from hosting meetups and BitDevs sessions to serving as the home for its extensive media operations. We also take a look at how the center has built a bridge with local universities. Highly recommended reading if you're looking for a little pick-me-up in the depths of these here 'bear markets'!

68% of Americans say their financial data should never be collected — or only with explicit consent, every time. TLDR: Financial privacy is NOT a fringe position. New survey of 2,200 U.S. adults from @fedibtc, @cornelltpi and @bitcoinpolicy: financialprivacyreport.com
