Worldcoin, the digital identification project, led by Open AI CEO Sam Altman, has recently brought major updates toward better user Privacy and security. The platform adds a feature that enables users to unverify their World IDs by removing their iris IDs permanently from the codes which are their humaneness attestation vehicle. 

Developed in collaboration with privacy experts such as like Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA) this solution allows individuals to have more control over their data. Not only has Worldcoin brought in third-party in-person age verification checks where users can prove that their age is over 18, but they also have included this service.

This involves on-site checks conducted by third-party personnel at orb locations before World ID verification. These measures align with Worldcoin’s goal of providing a secure financial and identity network based on proof of personhood.

The updates come amidst scrutiny from both the community and governments regarding Worldcoin’s centralization, privacy, and security. Worldcoin asserts its compliance with relevant laws and continues to collaborate with authorities in regions where concerns have been raised.
