We have to uniquely identify everyone in the world in order for this work. Facial verification is the best way of doing this, because it is highly reliable and makes claiming World dollars accessible to the entire world.

We of course understand people's privacy concerns, particularly in a crypto community. This is why we do not require more sensitive personal information such as a name, address, date of birth etc. to be submitted. Also, any videos submitted to us privately are never shared publicly.

The World Dollar Foundation (http://www.world-dollar.com) is a non-profit organisation dedicated to raising awareness about World Dollar, while Coin Autonomy (http://www.coinautonomy.com), an issuer of World dollars, is a member of the World Dollar Network. In other words, this is a purely private initiative, with nothing to do with governments.
