Has anyone read this "whitepaper"? Apparently no one at Worldcoin proofread it. :)

A sample sentence (not actually a sentence): "The COVID relief fund for India, where over $400 million were raised in a short period of time by individuals around the world to support the country as a hint at what can be possible. "

So far it's basically the same vapid claims repeated over and over.

Oooh! Maybe quietly retracted their AI-text-detector because it would have revealed that the whitepaper was written by . XD

"If every message or transaction included a "verified human" property, a lot of noise could be filtered from the digital world."

What? How? Since it's "privacy preserving", the "property" can't be traceable back to a particular person. So what prevents the spammer CEO (who is a person, and has the ability to "prove" that all their actions are done "by a human") from "proving" that each piece of spam is human-created?

This makes no technical sense.

Also (a nit, but c'mon) the footnotes in the whitepaper don't work. The HTML says literally:

Even the most recent implementations<a id="2" href="about:blank#fn2">2</a>

Seriously?
