I like how being cautious with my biometric data is beung framed as irrational fear and paranoia. As if ID theft never happens.

Using biometric data to unlock your phone does not make you more vulnerable to petty criminals.

You should be more worried about your local doctor’s office contracting some cheap-ass company to handle your data and ending up in a branch that being concerned about biometrics.
Or hell, Experian had that insane breach of basically everyone’s information years ago. Biometrics are not the problem, it’s smaller companies that you have to deal with all the time skimping on security because they think they can’t afford it.
