@BBCAfrica: Update: Kenya’s data regulator has now asked the high court to protect data collected by Worldcoin.

It wants the court to order the company to preserve data collected from Kenyans between 19 April and 8 August.

They're pretty much farming genuine iris scans for pennies on the dollar in Kenya. DER SPIEGEL (Which isn't great, but it is what it is) covered this uncharacteristically timely a few days ago; they're basically promising 50$ US in Crypto for your iris scan data. Super grim.
