Sam's plan is to become the de facto authority on verifying if people online are real or a chatbot (a problem HE PERSONALLY CREATED, by the way). His goal is that most companies start asking you to scan your eyes on your device to verify you're not a bot, and to match that against sam's central source of authority.

Basically sam is trying to create a new form of certificate authorities, because he knows (rightfully so) that if he is successful, he becomes the arbiter of who is and isn't allowed on the internet and that's extremely valuable (nevermind the fact that HE ALSO CONTROLS THE THING THIS IS PURPORTED TO STOP)
