Lemmy gonna get crowded soon
I wish. I have noticed that I don’t see many Lenny endorsements anymore, I wonder if they remove those (I know my comment has been removed couple of times).

I mean, come on. We shit on redditors, but even redditors won't stand for getting their iris's scanned just to use the site..
I think you dropped this: /s
I would not ponder this orb
Lmao No
According to two people familiar with the matter, World ID could soon become a way for Reddit users to verify that they are unique individuals while remaining anonymous on the platform.
Reddit knowing who I am isn't okay though. Who tf trusts them?
What?! Think of the shareholder value! /s
Create a problem
Sell the solution
YES, PLEASE! DO IT!!! Give people more reasons to leave!!
That is perhaps the only orb I care not to ponder.
I'm sorry Dave, I can't let you post that.
They are not all accounted for, the lost seeing stones. We do not know who else may be watching.
These companies are really seeing how far they can get away with shit. It's mind blowing.
Just no. I use reddit because it's pseudonimous. I would never reveal my id on reddit of all places, regardless of how useful it can be.

I hope they do this, it'd make the APIopolypse look like a practice run.
I’m 100% for technological advancement and even AI.
They will have to rip my fucking eyes out before I let them scan them with this thing.
Your iris/fingerprint scanner is only secure until someone is willing to rip out an eyeball/finger.
Or counterfits good enough beat the scanner someone is willing to pay for, a bank might have a super good system but would all the other branches that would use something like this, would even an ATM in a bad neighbourhood has as good of a scanner as one in a higher class area if they can save some money?
Adam ruined reddit.
(Go with me on the joke, reddit was ruined long long time ago. Adam did an endorsement of Orb a few weeks back, got called out and did an apology.)
I'M STILL BLAMING CONOVER THO
It was so weird that he even did that.
I heard this news a couple years ago. No chance in hell it happens
I think the appropriate headline should be:
"Reddit in talks to embrace iris-scanning Orb to verify users created by man alleged by his own sister to have molested her throughout her childhood beginning at age 3."
they already have too much info from their users, same as facebook... years ago things like this were heavily rejected (like PIPA act when the SOPA almost happened)
Glad I left that shithole.
... and they're gonna need a bone marrow sample to verify
The one Orb you don't ponder.
lol. That stupid Orb thing is still around?
No human needs this, this is the march of the companies against humanity.
And you need to donate a kidney.
Hey, it's reddit, it'll be worth it to see all those ai bots talk to eachother, Right?
