    So why do they want people’s iris scans? Like they say it’s an easy way to verify someone signing up is a real person but is there some other nefarious reason I’m missing here?

      also isn’t the weird orb thing supposed to be local-only? idk. I don’t expect them to keep their promises when it’s actually connected to the internet 24/7
