Bullshit.
They want our biometric data, and are using the AI they also want to justify it.
Didn't read the article because "biometricdata.com" obviously isn't going to understand why this is bad thing
And what happens when our biometric data gets hacked, which I think has happened already. I mean, I guess I have 9 other finger prints, but I'm not getting plastic surgery.
Get an emotional support koala and use it's fingerprint...
Duh
I can legit see manufactured fingerprints being used as physical tokens eventually.
Well, you believe in a boring dystopian near future and I envision one where Mr Robot pulls a wagon full of trained infiltrater koalas behind him everywhere just in case...
We all gotta be optimistic about something I guess.
Sounds like a scam preying on fear and paranoia.
It's called FUD
Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt
They are winning principles. Only once you're awake and aware, maybe you can use logic and critical thinking to protect yourself. Occam's Razor and shit. But you rarely can get others to see the truth. They Live was a good movie that does a good job illustrating it IMO. Especially the alley fight scene. Fucking love that part lol
And once they lose the biometric data, say, 2 montha from now, AI can falsify that and I'll be fucked for life.
Yay!
Lots of banks still won't let you use a yubikey or similar. Not that I generally mind signing in with my fingerprint for this purpose. Just that I think there are other options that could be better for online banking.
I've still not found a single financial service other than Privacy.com that supports passkeys. Maybe they prefer to use technologies that gather data they can sell...
