Worldcoin wants to scan the irises of every person on the planet to build a global ID network to bring crypto to the masses and ensure we’re not AI — or that’s what it claims.

Behind the grand vision, there’s a history of exploiting people in the Global South for biometric data and tech that doesn’t actually work very well. Maybe it’s just a means to pump a crypto token, but there’s good reason for regulators to shut it down now.

Worldcoin is an exploitative crypto project with a new coat of AI paint

@parismarx What is also amazing is that irises are not useful because they change over time, hence airports quietly canned that experiment. But that would fit perfectly with the con job they want to perpetrate anyway.

"Ah, you are not who you say you are, our technology says so" etc etc/

This. My dad used to have brown eyes but now, at 83, his irises are grey. So let's hand them our DNA instead LOL
