- 70The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeHaving invested a bit of time early on to the dawn of the internet, Trust Machine has shown us how beautiful inventions can be twisted by entrenched powers. The film's hope is that, if more people are paying attention this time around, blockchain might remain a tool for popular empowerment.
