世界币允许“取消验证”：永久删除虹膜代码增强用户隐私

Worldcoin has introduced the ability to unverify World IDs via permanent iris code deletion in response to growing scrutiny.

为了应对日益严格的审查，世界币引入了通过永久删除虹膜代码来取消验证世界 ID 的功能。

The initiative, which assigns digital World IDs to users after scanning their irises to confirm personhood, has registered nearly five million people.

该计划在扫描用户的虹膜以确认其身份后为其分配数字世界 ID，已注册了近 500 万人。

To address privacy concerns, Worldcoin (WLD) now allows users to request the permanent deletion of their ‘iris code,’ a unique numeric representation of their iris texture.

为了解决隐私问题，世界币（WLD）现在允许用户请求永久删除他们的“虹膜代码”，这是虹膜纹理的唯一数字表示。

The project said in a blog post, “Now, World ID holders have even more control with the option to unverify their World ID.”

该项目在一篇博客文章中表示，“现在，世界 ID 持有者拥有更多控制权，可以选择取消验证其世界 ID。”

The decision aligns with Worldcoin’s ongoing efforts to mitigate privacy concerns while promoting its vision of a digital ID system capable of proving personhood in an AI-dominated era.

这一决定与 Worldcoin 不断努力减轻隐私问题的努力相一致，同时促进其数字身份系统的愿景，该系统能够在人工智能主导的时代证明人格。

Worldcoin addresses user privacy

To counteract concerns, Worldcoin introduced Personal Custody, allowing new users to store their data on personal devices and offering an added layer of security by enabling users to opt out of data encryption and storage by Worldcoin. Furthermore, the project has implemented in-person age verification checks for users over 18 and consulted third-party privacy experts to develop these new measures.

The Worldcoin team wrote, “The individual‘s World ID will become invalid, and a six-month ‘cool off’ period will be initiated.”

世界币团队写道：“该个人的世界ID将失效，并启动为期六个月的‘冷静’期。”

The period is designed to prevent fraud, ensuring that individuals cannot immediately re-verify their identity. Following this period, the iris code will be permanently deleted and unrecoverable, marking a step in Worldcoin’s commitment to user privacy and data protection.

该期限旨在防止欺诈，确保个人无法立即重新验证其身份。在此期限之后，虹膜代码将被永久删除且不可恢复，这标志着 Worldcoin 对用户隐私和数据保护的承诺又迈出了一步。

The measures come amidst investigations and pushbacks from several countries, including a probe by South Korea and orders from Spain and Portugal to halt biometric data collection.

这些措施是在多个国家进行调查和抵制的情况下出台的，其中包括韩国的调查以及西班牙和葡萄牙的停止生物识别数据收集的命令。
