Parliamentary committee calls for shutdown of Worldcoin in Kenya By Cointelegraph

A parliamentary committee in Kenya’s government tasked with investigating Worldcoin has recommended that regulators shut down the project’s operations in the country.

According to a report released on Sept. 30 by Kenya’s parliament, Worldcoin has continued to collect personal data of Kenya’s residents “in total disregard” of an order to stop issued in May — potentially including information from minors. The committee recommended that Kenyan authorities “disable the virtual platforms” of Worldcoin as well as investigate its companies for potential criminal charges.
