It did actually, I'm a dev in the crypto space but remember vehemently disliking this project on its premise, feels very sketch to put it lightly. They claimed at one point IIRC they hold the data and will remove it "later" (trust us bro), but I definitely could be remembering that incorrectly. The fact that they started in low income regions and that they're harvesting iris data for a dystopian dream is crazy, I can't believe this crap is still going. Easily one of the most evil projects I've seen in my life.
