Why would people give up control (and their eye ball features) ? What is attracting people to this ?
Discussion
Shitcoin dollar.
People are attracted to a lot of dumb things, because they're mostly stupid.
To be fair, I use my thumb to unlock my phone :/
Don’t have to
Yea. Then again thumbprint method is not recent or new. Ancient Babylon used it for business transactions. China 200BC used it as identifiers down to even 1800s English used fingerprints on contracts. It's been used longer than IDs and common.
Other human identifiers such as gov’t numbering citizens are through ID, Social Security No
Some unique ones to humans that are still not common : Face recognition, Voice Print, DNA, Iris Scan, Retina Scan.
There are machines built to detect it for the benefit of the users, hence it has its own privacy clause. But nothing so drastic as to scan eyes globally - and this would be a record even the gov'ts won't have (yet). Its a bit creepy
Worldcoin is stupid and will fail spectacularly. Also, I think this video is bullshit.
1) Video appears to be from Shanghai - SH Tower is in background (raising serious doubts on validity for me, video is easy enough to doctor)
2) Worldcoin in China? Lol, plz - They already have Wechat, why let some clown ass foreigner in on their surveillance stack? Makes ZERO sense.
3) Line is like 150 people, I’ve seen several thousand people line up for a random sneaker releases in Shanghai - this is a joke
4) In the video, the Orb is ON THE GROUND on some unlit side street somewhere in Shanghai… - Right, because that makes sense.
5) 8 ppl per second is 10800 ppl per day, which at that rate scales to 8B ppl over TWO THOUSAND AND THIRTY YEARS…
6) Altman is a clown 🤡
using your fingerprint and retina/face scan on your smart device is an eye no one discusses. this kind of conversation is incomplete and deliberately sidesteps the reality of data collected remotely for years via smart tech. i cover my front facing camera and disable all biometrics on my iphones as well as on my daughter's (i'm still beating my teenage son down about covering
the camera). it's a false point of sale regarding "realigning" severed biometrics.
Assuming Apple is to be believed (highly likely given reputation risk) the representation of your thumbprint exists only in the secure element on your iPhone.
The orb and Worldcoin are the polar opposite.
