Tools for Humanity, the developer of the eyeball-scanning Worldcoin project, recently announced a feature called Concert Kit aimed at ensuring ticket sales go to verified humans rather than bots. The company initially promoted this launch by linking it to pop icon Bruno Mars, implying a direct collaboration for his tour. However, representatives for the singer have explicitly denied any discussions or partnerships, stating they were never approached by the startup. This revelation puts a spotlight on the company's aggressive marketing strategies as it attempts to integrate biometric identification into the entertainment industry.
