世界幣的虹膜掃描引起了未成年人的隱私擔憂

出於隱私問題（尤其是未成年人的隱私），葡萄牙資料監管機構 CNPD 已命令 Worldcoin 停止生物辨識資料收集 90 天。 CNPD 援引超過 30 萬葡萄牙公民提供的數據，也提出了數據刪除和撤銷同意的問題，並針對未成年人在未經父母同意的情況下被掃描的報道採取了行動。此前，西班牙和其他歐洲國家的數據監管機構也採取了類似行動，凸顯了人們對生物辨識資訊收集和使用的擔憂。

Is Worldcoin's Iris-Scanning Crossing the Line with Minors?

Worldcoin 的虹膜掃描是否跨越了未成年人的界限？

Portugal's data privacy watchdog, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD), has put the brakes on Worldcoin's iris-scanning project for 90 days. Why? They're concerned that the cryptocurrency project may be violating the privacy rights of minors.

葡萄牙資料隱私監管機構 Commissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD) 已將 Worldcoin 的虹膜掃描專案暫停 90 天。為什麼？他們擔心加密貨幣項目可能侵犯未成年人的隱私權。

The CNPD has reportedly received numerous complaints about Worldcoin collecting biometric data from minors without parental consent. They're also worried that the company isn't providing enough information about how they're using the data they collect.

據報道，CNPD 收到了大量關於 Worldcoin 在未經父母同意的情況下收集未成年人生物識別數據的投訴。他們還擔心該公司沒有提供足夠的資訊來說明他們如何使用所收集的數據。

"The impossibility of deleting data or revoking consent" has raised red flags for the CNPD. They're concerned that it could create a situation where individuals have no control over their biometric information once they provide it to Worldcoin.

「無法刪除資料或撤銷同意」給 CNPD 發出了危險信號。他們擔心這可能會造成個人在向世界幣提供生物辨識資訊後無法控制的情況。

The CNPD points out that European laws, including the GDPR, protect the data privacy of minors. They're particularly vulnerable to the risks associated with having their biometric information collected.

CNPD指出，包括GDPR在內的歐洲法律保護未成年人的資料隱私。他們特別容易受到與收集生物識別資訊相關的風險的影響。

Portugal's move follows similar actions by data regulators in Spain, Germany, and the UK, who have all expressed concerns about Worldcoin's data collection practices.

在葡萄牙此舉之前，西班牙、德國和英國的數據監管機構也採取了類似行動，這些監管機構都對世界幣的數據收集做法表示擔憂。

Spanish Data Czar Halts Worldcoin's Data Delve

西班牙數據沙皇叫停了世界幣的資料挖掘

Earlier this month, Spain's data protection agency, the AEPD, ordered Worldcoin to halt its data processing of Spanish citizens. They cited concerns that the project could be depriving the public of their data privacy protections.

本月早些時候，西班牙資料保護機構 AEPD 下令 Worldcoin 停止對西班牙公民的資料處理。他們擔心該項目可能會剝奪公眾的資料隱私保護。

AEPD President Jaime Herreros said the order was necessary to "protect the rights and freedoms of the individuals affected by the processing."

AEPD 主席 Jaime Herreros 表示，該命令對於「保護受處理影響的個人的權利和自由」是必要的。

Worldcoin's Backer: Sam Altman, the AI Whiz

世界幣的支持者：人工智慧奇才 Sam Altman

Worldcoin is backed by none other than Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI. The project's goal is to distribute cryptocurrency and digital IDs to everyone in the world.

Worldcoin 的支持者正是 OpenAI 創辦人 Sam Altman。該計畫的目標是將加密貨幣和數位ID分發給世界上的每個人。

To do this, Worldcoin uses a device called the Orb to scan people's irises. The Orb is supposed to verify the uniqueness and humanity of the individual and issue an Orb-verified World ID. Worldcoin claims that all images are deleted on-device by default.

為此，世界幣使用一種名為 Orb 的裝置來掃描人們的虹膜。 Orb 應該驗證個人的獨特性和人性，並頒發經過 Orb 驗證的世界 ID。世界幣聲稱預設情況下所有圖像都會在設備上刪除。

Kenya: A Global Leader in Worldcoin Resistance

肯亞：世界幣抵抗運動的全球領導者

Kenya has taken a proactive stance against Worldcoin, suspending its activities until experts can assess the risks and benefits of the project. The country's National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Centre (NCIC) expressed concerns about the collection of biometric data and the potential for privacy breaches.

肯亞對世界幣採取了積極主動的立場，暫停其活動，直到專家評估該計畫的風險和利益。該國國家網路安全和通訊整合中心（NCIC）對生物辨識資料的收集和侵犯隱私的可能性表示擔憂。

"We want to ensure that Kenyans are not used as guinea pigs in this experiment," said NCIC CEO Ezekiel Kittony.

NCIC 執行長 Ezekiel Kittony 表示：“我們希望確保肯亞人不會在這項實驗中被用作實驗對象。”
