WorldCoin必须删除所有用户数据并停止从肯尼亚人收集生物识别数据

WorldCoin必须删除所有用户数据并停止从肯尼亚人那里收集生物识别数据，该国高等法院对Sam Altman有争议的项目的最新打击裁定。

The High Court in Kenya has ordered Worldcoin to delete all user data and cease collecting biometric data from Kenyans.

肯尼亚的高等法院已下令WorldCoin删除所有用户数据，并停止从肯尼亚人那里收集生物识别数据。

Lady Justice Aburili Roselyne also ruled that the Worldcoin Foundation and its agents must cease “from further processing, collecting or dealing in biometric data.” They must also not obtain consent from their users through inducement or luring them with digital tokens.

法官阿布里利·罗斯利恩（Aburili Roselyne）夫人还裁定，世界币基金会及其代理人必须“无法进一步处理，收集或处理生物识别数据”。他们还必须通过诱导或吸引数字代币从用户获得同意。

The ruling, which was reported by local news outlet The Star, follows a two-year legal battle that pitted Worldcoin—now known as World—against two local advocacy groups: Katiba Institute and ICJ Kenya. The latter is the Kenyan chapter of the International Commission of Jurists.

这项裁决由当地新闻媒体《星报》报道，这是一场为期两年的法律斗争，使世界币（现在被称为世界）成为了两个当地倡导团体：卡蒂巴研究所和ICJ肯尼亚。后者是国际法学家委员会的肯尼亚分会。

The court further quashed Worldcoin’s decision to collect user data without undertaking a Data Protection Impact Assessment, which violates the country’s Data Protection Act. Worldcoin paid users who offered their biometric data with the WLD token, which also violates the Act.

法院进一步取消了WorldCoin收集用户数据的决定，而无需进行数据保护影响评估，这违反了该国的数据保护法。 WorldCoin向用WLD代币提供生物识别数据的用户付费，这也违反了该法案。

The project must permanently delete all user data within seven days, under the supervision of the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC). The judge also revoked its data processing certificate.

在数据保护专员（ODPC）办公室的监督下，该项目必须在7天内永久删除所有用户数据。法官还撤销了其数据处理证书。

ICJ Kenya said it welcomed the ruling, describing it as a “powerful precedent, not just for Kenya, but globally affirming that rights must remain paramount in technological innovation.”

肯尼亚国际法院表示，它欢迎这项裁决，将其描述为“不仅是肯尼亚的强大先例，而且在全球范围内确认权利必须在技术创新中仍然至关重要”。

“The court’s directive to delete all unlawfully obtained biometric data is not just a legal necessity but a critical act of restoring data subject rights and reaffirming human dignity in the digital age,” it added.

它补充说：“法院删除所有非法获得生物特征数据的指令不仅是法律上的必要性，而且是恢复数据主题权利并重申数字时代人类尊严的关键行为。”

The ruling is the latest blow to Worldcoin in what was one of its largest markets. At launch, the project lured hundreds of thousands of Kenyans with the reward of 25 WLD tokens, which were valued at $55 at the time.

该裁决是其最大市场之一对世界币的最新打击。在发布时，该项目以25个WLD代币的奖励吸引了数十万肯尼亚人，当时价值为55美元。

However, shortly after, the Kenyan government turned against the project. In August 2023, it ordered Worldcoin to shut down and just weeks later, legislators were grilling company executives, including CEO Alex Blania, over how it was utilizing Kenyans’ data. The lawmakers recommended that the government fully shut down the project for ‘espionage.’

但是，不久之后，肯尼亚政府反对该项目。 2023年8月，它命令WorldCoin关闭，仅仅几周后，立法者就烧烤了包括首席执行官Alex Blania在内的公司高管，以了解其如何利用肯尼亚人的数据。立法者建议政府完全关闭该项目的“间谍”。

While it claimed it would resume operations in 2024 after authorities dropped some of the charges against it, Worldcoin has never recovered the Kenyan market.

尽管当局撤销了一些针对的指控后，它将在2024年恢复运营，但世界币从未收回肯尼亚市场。

The development comes after Indonesia’s Ministry of Communications and Digital Affairs suspended the project over “suspicious activity.”

在印度尼西亚的通信和数字事务部以“可疑活动”暂停了该项目之后，这一发展发生了。
