Hong Kong Regulator's Intervention
Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data personnel visited 10 of the project's locations in December and January, uncovering privacy violations that have sparked regulatory action.

The visits raised alarms about the handling of personal data and highlighted the need for greater transparency in Worldcoin's operations.
