ttbomk, the companies don’t care.

It was a few years ago? when a woman in Taiwan showed a video where her co-worker could open her phone, because the face-recognition logic in Apple phones is calibrated to Whites, not to Asians.

I think that there are only 2 biometrics which ought be used:

  1. bloodvessels-in-fingers/hands
  2. retinas, blood-vessels again.

There are some diseases which monkey that, for people with those conditions, & injuries can monkey them too,

but making the bloodvessels-in-hands one be normal would mean that “ghoulies”, cloned fingerprints that someone wears as rubbery coverings on their fingers, iirc, would be blocked by that, so would the tape-copying-fingerprint trick..

& making it so that the retina-scan was only done in higher-security settings, & only where you have to peer into the machine, not where it’s scanning everybody who’s in the lobby ( another story I read ),

& having iris-scanning for people who have retina-degenerative-conditions/injuries, as backup..

etc..

Face-scanning’s a stupid “security”.

Got beaten-up? now you can’t open your phone.

Someone’s got you at gunpoint, & they just hold your phone up at you, & it unlocks?

That isn’t security, that is authority-theatre.

Which I’m fed-up with.
