Proof of Usefulness Score

The submission represents a verifiable Icelandic entity (Dattaca Labs) acting as a partner for digi.me in the personal data economy. However, the submission itself is critically flawed with hyperbolic hallucinations, claiming 'everyone' as the audience and that 'most people' have used the product, which is factually incorrect for a regional B2B consultancy. The financial metric ('2500000 all time marketcap') is ambiguous and misused. While the underlying business sector (privacy/data) is relevant, the lack of credible evidence and the presence of 'red flag' exaggerations result in a negligible score.
