I'm not even talking about intentional Sybil attacks, I'm talking about the very real possibility that people get excluded from this system because the system mistakenly identifies them as having already scanned in.

If the goal of this is really as ambitious as they claim, with every single person on the planet getting UBI through it, their biometric system needs to be strict enough to not conflate two people and flexible enough to match the same iris when scanned a second time for verification. I don't believe the tech is there.

I have very little faith that orbs can't be fooled by synthetic irises.
