NZ Everyday Investor John Alcock / When Banking Safety Goes Too Far, Ep 499
Everyday, banks and governments justify new rules, checks, and blocks in the name of preventing fraud, money‑laundering, terrorism, and scams. It's a reasonable objective: stop bad actors and protect vulnerable people. It's just that, at some point, the line between protecting customers and controlling customers, can quietly disappear.
