According to online reports, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin said in a new blog post: "Today, privacy can no longer be ignored. AI has greatly improved the ability to collect and analyze centralized data, and has also expanded the range of data we voluntarily share." He emphasized that zero-knowledge proof (ZK), fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) and obfuscation techniques "far exceed the imagination of cryptopunk in the 1990s." He warned: "The most pressing risk is that privacy will approach historical lows, and this imbalance will allow the most powerful individuals and countries to have access to everyone's data while everyone else knows almost nothing about it."
