One key component in #facebook #libra comes from an academic startup - https://chainspace.io - originally part of the EU funded project DECODE

Way too easy for Suckerberg to buy a R&D that is funded with EU public money.
Ironically, DECODE stands for DEcentralised Citizen Owned Data Ecosystem - and people at chainspace turned their back to the whole mission: these people did not think twice before selling themselves and their research to the privacy oppressor.
