The Brazilian National Data Protection Agency (ANPD) recently ordered Tools for Humanity (TFH), the company behind the biometric technology used in the World ID project, to cease providing services to Brazilians from January 25th, and to stop providing encryption or financial compensation for collecting citizens' biometric data. ANPD's law enforcement department reported that it believes providing cryptocurrency as compensation may undermine the effectiveness of users' consent to collect sensitive biometric data, and is concerned that financial incentives may affect people's decisions, especially for vulnerable groups. ANPD also expressed concerns about the sensitivity of biometric data, the irreversibility of data collection, and the inability to delete collected biometric data once provided. （Cointelegraph） https://www.
