    <p>Spain’s Data Protection Agency (AEPD) slapped Worldcoin with a temporary three-month ban last Wednesday, prohibiting it from collecting any more personal data or using any data it had already gathered.</p>
    <p>Just hours later Worldcoin filed a lawsuit against the ban but on Monday, Reuters reported that the High Court had rejected the request. According to the court, the “safeguarding of the public interest” must prevail, and Worldcoin had made “unsubstantiated assertions.”</p>

    <p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Worldcoin" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/worldcoin.html">Worldcoin</a> claimed that the AEPD was “spreading inaccurate and misleading claims about our technology globally,” and “circumventing established procedures under GDPR.”</p>
    <p>“In accordance with the EU regulations pertaining to GDPR enforcement, <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Worldcoin" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/worldcoin.html">Worldcoin</a> contributors have regularly responded to BayLDA requests for months while operating lawfully in <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Spain" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/spain.html">Spain</a> and select other countries in Europe,” <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Worldcoin" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/worldcoin.html">Worldcoin</a> said in response to the ban.</p>
    <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-worldcoin-is-attracting-complaints-globally">Worldcoin is attracting complaints globally&nbsp;</h2>
    <p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Worldcoin" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/worldcoin.html">Worldcoin</a> is owned by Tools for Humanity and run by OpenAI CEO, Sam Altman. Its goal is to collect the iris data of as many people as possible to create a digital ID database. In its venture, the project also offers free crypto in exchange for data and promises to be able to distinguish humans from AI.</p>
    <p>The AEPD said it had received multiple complaints “denouncing insufficient information, <strong>collection of data from minors</strong>, and preventing the withdrawal of consent, among other infringements,” from Worldcoin.</p>
    <p>Indeed, Worldcoin has received a mixed response across the globe with concerns often centered on privacy issues. South Korea launched an investigation last week following complaints about its methods of data collection, and Worldcoin has prompted inquiries from the UK, France, Germany, and Kenya.&nbsp;</p>
    <p>Despite these concerns, <strong>Worldcoin’s WLD token has risen more than 280% in the past month</strong> and currently sits at just under $10.</p>
