    If it’s compromised you can’t change it for one

    Also you can’t be legally forced without a warrant to give a password but biometric data you can be legally forced without a warrant to give up

      Lol let’s take the kid gloves off, shall we?

      Fingerprints, as a means of authentication, is just straight up not secure.
