      Worldcoin, founded by US tech entrepreneur Sam Altman, offers free crypto tokens to people who agree to have their eyeballs scanned.

      What a perfect sentence to sum up 2023 with.

      Mr Altman, who founded Open AI which built chat bot ChatGPT, says he hopes the initiative will help confirm if someone is a human or a robot.

      That last line kinda creeps me out.

          Yeah that’s most most sci-fi dystopian article I’ve read in a while.

          The line where one of the people waiting to get their eyes scanned is well eye opening " I don’t care what they do with the data, I just want the money", this is why they want us poor, so we need money so badly that we will impatiently hand over everything that makes us.

          But we already happily hand over our DNA genome to private corporations, so what’s an eye scan gonna do…
