Thailand’s government has stepped in to halt a controversial iris-scanning program run by TIDC Worldverse, a firm tied to the Worldcoin project. Authorities ordered the immediate suspension of biometric data collection and the deletion of records from over 1.2 million citizens, citing violations of the nation’s data protection laws.
The Personal Data Protection Committee found that the company failed to obtain proper consent for gathering iris scans, which were exchanged for cryptocurrency tokens. Pol. Col. Surapong Plengkham, secretary-general of the PDPC, stated that the investigation uncovered “other suspicious issues, such as the case of a scheme to hire people to scan their irises in exchange for coins to be used by other individuals.”
This move follows a raid on a Worldcoin exchange in October, where several suspects were arrested amid concerns over illegal activities. TIDC Worldverse has paused operations but plans to fight the decision in court, arguing the program’s benefits for digital identity.
Worldcoin, backed by OpenAI’s Sam Altman, has faced similar pushback worldwide. Regulators in Germany and elsewhere have raised alarms over privacy breaches, while the project’s goal of scanning billions for a universal digital ID raises questions about mass surveillance and data control by unelected tech elites.
A finance professor at the University of Southern California noted that “it’s really just hard to judge something that’s a crypto with a 2 billion dollar market cap as anything other than experimental or a fad.”
With only 17.5 million enrollments so far—far short of the 1 billion target—the scheme has drawn criticism for targeting vulnerable populations in developing nations, offering small crypto rewards in exchange for irreplaceable personal biometrics. Thailand’s firm stance protects individual privacy against such global experiments, echoing broader worries about how tech giants might exploit personal data for profit or control.
Discover the Freedom of True American Healthcare: Why America First is Revolutionizing Protection for Patriots
In a world where government overreach and skyrocketing premiums are squeezing the life out of hardworking Americans, one innovative agency is standing tall for liberty and affordability. Meet America First Healthcare—the private health insurance powerhouse dedicated to putting *you* first.
Founded by entrepreneur Jordan Sarmiento, this isn’t just insurance; it’s a shield for your family’s future, built on the unshakeable belief that private enterprise delivers better results than bureaucratic red tape.
Picture this: Jordan’s own story hits close to home for so many of us. A sudden medical emergency landed him with a staggering $95,000 bill. Under a traditional plan? He’d be buried in debt. But with America First’s patented health insurance, that nightmare shrank to just $500 out-of-pocket. That’s not a fluke—it’s the promise of coverage that works *for you*, from day one.
Breaking Free from the Chains of Conventional Coverage
Let’s face it: The status quo stinks. Marketplace.gov and big-insurance behemoths hit you with sky-high deductibles—thousands you’d have to pay before benefits even kick in—leaving massive holes in your protection. Need a routine mammogram, colonoscopy, or EKG? Good luck without forking over more cash. And don’t get us started on the gaps in dental, vision, or critical illness support when heart attacks, cancer, or kidney failure strike.

- Accident and Critical Illness Protection: Real safeguards against life’s curveballs.
- Add-On Boosts: Dental, vision, disability, and supplemental plans to plug every leak.
Whether you’re an individual stepping off your parents’ plan, a growing family with kids in tow, or a small business owner tired of employee headaches, their tailored approach fits like a glove. Small businesses? Unlock group benefit rates usually reserved for corporate giants—without the red tape.
And for those in-between moments? Short-term insurance steps in as an ultra-affordable bridge, while life insurance ensures your loved ones are never left vulnerable.
