More than 100,000 people around the world have used crypto to donate to Ukraine’s war effort in a kind of grass-roots corollary to foreign-government aid. At Cambridge Analytica, Brittany Kaiser helped marshal the data of tens of millions of Facebook users to press the 2016 presidential candidacy of Donald Trump. Her new work fits with a redemption tale that started when she began leaking damning information about her former employer after it came under fire in 2018. She gained a measure of fame as the scandal began to boil over in 2018, testifying at a parliamentary inquiry in the UK, releasing documents and positioning herself as a whistleblower. Kaiser also has remade herself as an advocate for crypto, the tech-based monetary system that some people believe can be a democratizing political force. Source
