Colombia Halts Sam Altman's World Data Operations Over Legal Breaches

2025-10-18 01:45

Colombia's Superintendence of Commerce and Industry (SIC) has ordered Sam Altman's World and Tools for Humanity to cease data operations in the country. The decision comes after the companies failed to comply with national data protection laws, lacking a comprehensive personal data treatment plan and official authorization to handle sensitive biometric data. President Gustavo Petro endorsed the SIC's decision, highlighting the importance of transparency in the exchange of sensitive data, such as iris scans, for monetary gain. This regulatory action in Colombia follows similar scrutiny faced by World in Brazil and Chile over its data management practices.
