    The article doesn’t even discuss how financial survillance is related to democracy.

    I just looked for the paragraphs where “democracy” is discussed and it’s nowhere stated how it is threatened by financial survaillance.

    Whatever the author states in the article, it’s not about a threat to democracy. I go even further and state that monitoring all financial transactions is good for a democracy. Today, almost all transactions are monitored anyway.

      I beg to differ… how do you think cartels get their funds ?
