So much of what creating privacy busting biometric databases claim to do could be accomplished with speed-of-light geofencing, a.k.a. “distance-bounding protocol”. If a moderator decides messages from country X are problematic, then they can flag/block them for other users. It only requires carefully measuring ping times and basically involves banning traffic from places that can't achieve certain minimum pings to certain trusted servers.

Adam ruined reddit.
(Go with me on the joke, reddit was ruined long long time ago. Adam did an endorsement of Orb a few weeks back, got called out and did an apology.)

I would not ponder this orb

So this guy helps create a technology that turns bots up to 11 and then he turns around to sell us a privacy invasive solution to the problem he created? What a fucking asshole.
But would it make you feel better to know that there’s also a crypto currency associated with it?

They are not all accounted for, the lost seeing stones. We do not know who else may be watching.

they already have too much info from their users, same as facebook...
years ago things like this were heavily rejected (like PIPA act when the SOPA almost happened) -
Exactly. Reddit isn’t my fucking bank. They don’t need to know who I am.
They don’t even require an email when signing up. At the same time they speed run to biometrics.
What a shit show they’ve become.

I wish. I have noticed that I don’t see many Lenny endorsements anymore, I wonder if they remove those (I know my comment has been removed couple of times).

If World ID becomes one of Reddit’s third-party providers, it would be good news for Tools for Humanity, which was founded six years ago with the lofty goal of providing a universal basic income to the world by offering them cryptocurrency called Worldcoin in exchange for scanning their eyeballs with an Orb.
What the actual fuck.
Seriously how on Earth is that supposed to work?

It reminds me of the eyeballs in linqspace in Beneath a Steel Sky.
