According to a report by Techinasia on May 10, PANews states that Indonesia's Ministry of Communication and Information (Komdigi) may delete 500,000 records of retinal data collected by the World platform. This move stems from concerns about potential data leaks. Komdigi is investigating whether there are risks associated with storing retinal data. If evidence of such risks is found, this data may be permanently deleted.
World is a platform that provides authentication and has been scrutinized for offering 800,000 Indonesian rupiah (48.34 USD) to users who scan their retinas. After Komdigi revoked its operating license, the platform ceased all scanning activities in Indonesia. World clarified that its cryptocurrency Worldcoin is not intended for compensation; these tokens are optional incentives.
