    Face authentication in banking apps is even worse. My suicidability peaks at those times

      Oh god why would you use face authentication for anything. It’s not even faster than a password really and it’s just more data points of biometric scan data that are probably now being sold somewhere. Besides the fact that it’s worse than front cameras or mirrors.

        Tell that to the people behind banking apps. We’re forced into face authentication around here

          Where is here? Also that’s incredibly unsafe, the age verification facial recognition systems being implemented in like the UK being fooled so easily by things like pictures of video game characters clearly shows that this is not a reliable technology for security, especially with AI slop deepfakes becoming so good.

            Brazil. Face recognition became mandatory without people noticing. A boiling frogs thing. Even the government app everyone is forced to use does that, and we can’t complain. It’s a mess :(
