So even with open source hardware I still need to trust the individual orb in front of me. How do I know there’s no iris “skimmer” in front of it? I don’t love the idea of an authentication method I can’t reset the password to in case of compromise.

Are we picturing a world in which iris scans are a common method of authentication but never get compromised? Or is world coin hoping to be the only time you ever get your scan done and all other authentications are derived from that single scan? Both scenarios seem improbable to me.

It actually is, you only need to verify in-person once. As long as you don’t lose your private key, you never need to return to an Orb.

If another entity compromised your iris scan (let’s say the top secret government lab you work for), is there any mechanism that would allow the World Coin protocol to flag this compromised credential and issue a new one?
