The British Post Office and the Fujitsu Horizon Project: when governments go fascist
https://3speak.tv/watch?v=brianoflondon/vdqnynty
I used to be a management consultant working on large accounting systems in the UK including work for various parts of the UK Government.
So I have some thoughts on the UK's Post Office and Fujitsu Horizon scandal and catastrophe.
An accounting system which falsely accused upstanding and innocent people of dishonesty was a catastrophe in the UK. And I can fully understand the way it happened.
I don't talk about this in the video, but a public ledger system like Hive would prevent this kind of crap. Which is why Government will always hate what we do here.
