    "IfWorld ID becomes one of Reddit’s third-party providers, it would be good news for Tools for Humanity, which was founded six years ago with the lofty goal of providing a universal basic income to the world by offering them cryptocurrency called Worldcoin in exchange for scanning their eyeballs with an Orb."

    This sounds like satire or evil.

      Well with the latter, all you have to be is blind to the consequences for that to be true.

          It's not satire.
