    Nah, since it is only an option (at least it read like this) not much would happen (again) I guess.

    Face recognition in smartphones is spread widely even though I know nobody using it.

      Facial recognition in smartphones is a very different thing from basically every point of view. Are you sure you don’t know a single person using an iPhone? Chances are they’ll be using FaceID to unlock their phone.

      I don’t think I know a single person NOT using biometrics to unlock their smartphone.

        I don’t use biometrics for anything.
