Actually, World ID does not use names at all. It is not a "Name-based ID." Proof of Personhood: The system only verifies that you are a unique human, not who you are. There is no field for "Name," "Address," or "Date of Birth" in the protocol. The Uniqueness Check: When someone scans their iris, the Orb creates a mathematical "Iris Code." If another person tried to register as "you," they couldn't, because their iris pattern is different. If they tried to use your iris, they would need your physical presence at the Orb (see the photo/fake section below). 2. "Since the end result is 'digital' data, what's to prevent that from being faked?" This is where Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) and Cryptography come in. The Iris Hash: The Orb doesn't just save a picture of your eye. It converts the pattern into a one-way mathematical code (a hash). You cannot reverse-engineer this code to recreate an image of an eye. Zero-Knowledge Proofs: When you use your World ID to log into a service, you don't send your biometric data. Instead, the protocol sends a cryptographic proof that says: "I have a valid, unique iris code in the database, but I am not showing you which one it is." Because it is backed by blockchain technology, this proof cannot be forged or "doubled." 3. "How can you be sure no one can 'steal' your identity by using a photo?" The Orb is specifically engineered to prevent "spoofing" (fake inputs). Liveness Detection: The Orb uses a suite of sensors, including infrared cameras, 3D sensors, and thermal imaging. It checks for a pulse, the reaction of the pupil to light, and the three-dimensional structure of the eye. High-Resolution Detail: A standard photo or even a high-resolution screen does not have the depth or the multi-spectral signature of a living human eye. The AI models running on the Orb are trained to instantly distinguish between a high-res print/screen and real human tissue. World isn't trying to collect your 'Identity' (Who you are); it is verifying your 'Humanness' (That you are a real, unique person). It designed so that you can prove you are a human online without ever having to reveal your name or personal details to the apps you use. https://whitepaper.world.org/ I understand the criticism levelled at systems like World.org, but I also realise that with AI we have opened Pandora box, and we need a way to identify ourselves as unique individuals in the digital realm when dealing with data-processing systems. I am open to hearing and accepting a better solution. At the moment, it seems to me that only World.org has a functioning system that still protects the user privacy 100%.
