Worldcoin is not a known scam. It is a new company and what they set out to do is different than what they have already done.

It is a dumb ponzi-like crypto scam that makes me suspicious of Altman, given he’s in charge of OpenAI, one of the most important technology companies currently.

Our investigation revealed wide gaps between Worldcoin’s public messaging, which focused on protecting privacy, and what users experienced. We found that the company’s representatives used deceptive marketing practices, collected more personal data than it acknowledged, and failed to obtain meaningful informed consent.

The only reason to believe Worldcoin would be a “bright spot” is if you did zero research and are taking the creators fully at their word. Worldcoin is a known scam.

A problem created by another Sam Altman company! Why would you trust them to solve the issue they started?
