Chilean authorities are investigating World, a company that provides domiciliary iris scanning services, due to concerns about the company's activities and data handling. World, formerly known as Worldcoin, has faced backlash as it expanded its user base by adopting a new integration modality. The company's partnership with Rappi, an urban transportation company, had raised additional concerns. Rappi clarified that their pilot test with World would not be developed in Chile but in Argentina. The consumer protection agency in Chile, SERNAC, has raised questions about various aspects of World's operations, including the registration of minors and data retention practices.
