Re: UN peacekeepers 'barter goods for sex' - BBC News

um...  The problem is quite significant, and it is important not to
over-simplify the problem and/or the solution for it.


Andrew Macleod spoke about this problem at the 'Trust Factory' event.  Some

With respect to 'modern slavery', i also highlight:

another important problem to solve, that the broader video will help you
understand the scope of these sorts of problems...

If Facebook, Google, etc. want to Manage ID and do the biometric analysis
so they can use facial recognition for commercial purposes as though
they're process is making the best opportunities for humans on the planet.  I
think, well. they're not serving vulnerable people very well.  a very high
opportunity cost put upon humanity in exchange for 'free' services (on paid
internet).

'rethinking good guys vs. bad guys'...   great concept.

I've been working for years in poverty on global open standards
technologies that are difficult to commercialise for people such as
myself.  That kinda makes me an investor, but we don't have the
'blockchain' for that either, yet.

People should be rewarded more for doing the right thing than they are for
knowingly doing otherwise. The example provided above shows how deep the
rot has gone.  It's simply not acceptable.  knowledge economy should
enhance socio-economic participation whilst being provisioned in a 'dignity
enhancing' manner that supports most of all, safety, health and welfare.
