Worldcoin, now rebranded as World, faces scrutiny from German regulators over its biometric data practices, particularly regarding compliance with GDPR. The Bavarian State Office for Data Protection has mandated a data deletion protocol by January 19, highlighting concerns over the collection and storage of sensitive iris data. Despite implementing some compliance measures, World plans to appeal the regulator's decision amid ongoing global privacy concerns.
