Worldcoin Gathering Data Without Purpose?
According to reports, the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision launched a probe against Worldcoind back in November 2022. Michael Will, the state regulator’s president stated that they are the front leading authority which is investigating Worldcoin’s compliance with the European Union’s data protection rules.
The state regulator’s president mentioned that the probe was launched because Tools for Humanity, a firm behind Worldcoin has a subsidiary in the jurisdiction. He added that the technology behind this is neither established nor well analyzed for any specific core purpose.
Will pointed out that this action leads to a huge number of risks which include users’ data protection. One significant concern is whether users have provided explicit consent for their data to be processed, and if the information provided to them was sufficient and clear.
