1.16 Fighting Human Trafficking Through Technology, with Nic McKinley of DeliverFund

Nic McKinley, founder and CEO of the nonprofit intelligence group
DeliverFund and former CIA Special Agent, recently joined Tiffany
Xingyu Wang to discuss the modern explosion in human trafficking
and how DeliverFund leverages cutting-edge technology to fight it
across private companies’ digital platforms. Traffickers are
leveraging such platforms and smartphone technology to expand
their illicit activities, which - beyond the tragic human cost -
can also severely damage the reputation of the platforms that
unwittingly hosted such activity. By rooting out such criminals,
platforms can collectively deny traffickers a territory in which
to operate.
