    It might be possible to fool it.

    More important, it’s normalizing use of facial recognition in everyday situations. This is a very invasive tech and prime for abuse by increasingly totalitarian governments.

    It is good practice to create a different password for each service. That way, if one service is compromised, your adversary cannot use that password to unlock everything else.

    That may sound onerous, but thanks to selfie-login technology, you can instead simply use a different face for each account.

      Maybe its “unlocking” stuff on your desktop browser with your phone, like the new captchas where you have to scan a QR and receive a code via SMS (seriously google, what the heck)

    So what do we do about my evil twin brother who is a supervillain?

    I didn’t believe this was a problem until I watched my wife and her twin sister unlocking each others phones (they aren’t identical but they do look quite a lot alike)

    Time for graphene and protonmail. They should at least take another 15y to enshittify to this point.
