Razer account “Human Verification” promotes World ID biometric verification (consumerrights.wiki)

Razer’s account management interface includes a “Human Verification” feature that encourages users to verify their identity through World ID, an identity system operated by Tools for Humanity. The feature is presented as a way to obtain a “human badge” and receive promotional incentives, including Razer Silver rewards, during normal account usage.

BTW, Tools for Humanity is another Sam Altman startup, that also has World Coin crypto currency and wants to scan human irises for human verification. Razer was one of the first endorsers. The whole thing walks like a rugpull scam and quacks like a rugpull scam.
