      This same tech will be used—by someone— to identify protesters, to figure out if you're depressed or manic—and how to monetize that.https://twitter.com/techcrunch/status/907672506739310592 …

      Same family of technologies will be used to classify you —right or wrong— as a criminal or a terrorist—or what your sexual orientation is.

      Not saying Apple will. I am saying that this is increasingly doable and will be done—or at least some people will think it should be done.

      They can already compel you with the thumbprint aka touch ID. Only your pin access is protected.https://twitter.com/bostonjerry/status/907673044461768707 …

      With FaceID, cops can just point your phone at your face while they have you in handcuffs then look through your phone without a warrant.

      If you power down your phone, touch ID is disabled until you enter your PIN. I wonder if FaceID works the same way.

          not a lawyer, but I would think a court would view the fingerprint as precedence in this case so Face = fingerprint

          They just added five quick presses turns PIN back on for touch, specifically for that, so I'm assuming there's a similar option for Face ID

          It almost certainly works the same way as a fingerprint.

          In iOS 11 pressing side button 5x disables biometric ID.

          They grab you though. swiping the phone from the person is already a common police technique. Honestly complicated issue for me

          @jmp_nyc This is exactly why it didn’t work at first during the demo. You can also press Lock five times to force a passcode unlock.

          How would the phone be able to tell if I actually want to unlock it at any given time? Checking the time doesn’t mean I want to unlock. 🤔
