    A Qatar Airways flight had to make an emergency landing after a female passenger found out her husband was cheating on her mid-flight

    The unidentified Iranian woman reportedly used her husband’s fingerprint to unlock his phone while he was asleep, before becoming incensed by what she found on the device
    Damn you fingerprint tech!

    Fucking hilarious. Also funnier that she lost her shit so bad they had to land in Chennai. That's a shitty day.

    For a split second when I read the first line I thought it meant she caught him in the bathroom with someone while they were flying.

    The first class bathroom on Qatar is certainly big enough for it.

    Pretty much what was quoted above. Touch ID/Fingerprint scanner will unlock the phone if someone grabs your finger and places it on the scanner. So if you are asleep, they can unlock it with your finger. With the iPhone X at least from what I've experienced, your eyes have to be opened and looking at the phone unless you turn off attentiveness in the phone settings to speed up Face ID unlock. This prevents anyone from taking your phone and unlocking it while you are asleep by pointing it at your face.

    biometric locks are dumb because your biometrics aren't legally private information.

    They're a great feature of a multi-part authorization, but as a single-part auth they have their own flaws.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    Mother marries daughter and it's discovered that she previously married her son.


    And yet the weirdest part is the article focuses on how the daughter received probation.


    Like, I get that she has been sentenced and the mom hasn't been yet, but how the fuck do they sentence the daughter first? And I feel uncomfortable in punishing the daughter despite her being an adult at the time.


    Whole thing is fucked up.

    Adding multiple passwords to your phone necessarily makes it less secure. The argument for fingerprint sensors or face-scanning isn't security, it's convenience.

    It is not difficult to argue that the face-scan technology is less convenient than the fingerprint sensor.

    how about no passcode/biometric lock, that seems like the ultimate convenience

    That is certainly the easiest, but you still have to press the button to turn it on (fingerprint/faceid also serves that purpose,) so it is not much easier than fingerprints.

    ultimate convenience will be 100% voice control that transitions to controlling with mind via blue tooth implants at the base of your skull

    Ultimate Convenience sounds like a good movie title where the human race is taken over by said blue tooth implants that turn us all into robot controlled zombie things.
