“So,aLedger CEO Evades Answer About Potential Subpoena Response
During an AMA on Twitter spaces the other day, Ledger CEO Pascal Gauthier was pressed on whether or not they would respond to subpoena regarding customer KYC information.
He brought up the story of when Apple refused to unlock the iPhone of the San Bernardino shooter. When asked if Ledger would do they same, he claimed that he was being asked “impossible questions” and essentially evaded the question altogether.
“We will always be on the side of our customers, but also you are asking me an impossible question to answer. Which in ever scenario, all the time, everywhere, I don’t know”
This obviously raises some serious concerns. Regardless of whether or not assets can be seized, Ledger will now have KYC access to customers who opt into the Recover service. And while it is easy to say, “Simply do not opt in”, the fact that this is even now an issue is concerning to say the least.
