Compelling comic by the great Wally Wood, from 1952. Omen? Or “Oh, no….”.

I’m curious if a picture of your face will unlock it. LIke your GF would have pictures of you on her phone, just pull one up zoom into the face and hold thatup to his phone to unlock it.
Biometrics are not security. Whether it’s a fingerprint or your face, it’s a weak illusion of security for idiots who can’t remember passcodes. It’s also inflexible. What happens if you grow a beard? What happens when a woman hits The Wall. What happens when someone gets a 8×10 portrait or 3D model of your face? With biometrics your “key” can change without your control, and also once it’s compromised it’s always compromised. You can’t change it.
tl;dr: Keep secrets in your head.

If it really is transmitting a pattern of infrared dots, then it’s looking at a semi 3D point array of your face, not just the flat image of it. But a 3D printed bust can get around that. You’re still subject to the problems of not having a stable key that you can’t change or keep secret.
I used to just have a £10 dumb-phone (or whatever you call them) but upgraded to a smartphone so I could download some top quality porn
after reading all of this crap, I think I might go back to the cheap brick
The New IPhone is a privacy-infinging, wallet raping waste. I don’t think I will ever upgrade beyond an IPhone 6… MAYBE a Google Pixel if the price ever goes down.

Google is the See Eye Eh
Anonymous3Smart phones are really a danger to privacy, and it took me circa a year to configure my chinese-made (relatively cheap) smart phone to at least have a little respect for my privacy.
-Android phones with google’s apps and “google play services” system app: It will upload all your stuff (has access to contacts, messages,location,browser history and anything else) into the “cloud” (to google’s computers) where they are doing sophisticated analysis of all the collected data for whatever reasons, probably mostly for ads, but maybe anything else (They are the ones who invented Tensor Processing Units (TPU) which run artificial neural network code even better than GPUs, 180 teraflops in one board, would be funny to do science on something like this) and so they also know statistics on your walking habits, where and with whom you have been and so on. All the “big data” topic. have circa 15 data centers. Also, understanding natural language (voice) is no problem for their servers, or any other big enough neural network rack. Or did you think that the voice recognition features happen to operate on the tiny processor of your own device? (yea, that’s even more data for the statistics) And I guess Iphone stuff is not much different, but never had an Iphone. I like my phone rooted, with firewall and antivirus and permission management and backup to my own data storage devices instead of clouds. And not use play services for install stuff, there are sites with free apk files like apkpure.com
-Same for facebook stuff and other social media apps. Plus those give away tips for the burglars if one doesn’t configure ‘privacy’ settings
-Some idiot bluepills tell their girls the pass code for unlocking, so only using facial recognition may be more secure for that matter for the average blue pill betas. Anyway, someone is a beta cash-cow for companies if buying new very expensive phones every few years. If my phone slows down, I copy data to pc (Titanium backup), and do a factory reset, and reinstall.
-And you never should hold anything sensitive (secret or critical) on phone anyway. It may get lost and that data may get extracted from phone memory (if the whole thing is not encrypted totally)
-Open email and other stuff from laptop or mobile browser (some will annoy you to install app, all mobile sites who do this: f~~~ you!)- AuthorPosts
