I've never thought about this before. One thing I'm curious to hear from your perspective is the idea of a single password being irrelevant. I've had my credit card info stolen before and it's never been a concern of not being able to convince my bank it wasn't me, the amount of corroboratating evidence is just overwhelming. In a world where a single point of failure ,such as a biometric, is irrelevant simply because the amount of information to convincingly recreate a person is more trouble than it's worth. Additionally I've never had a biometric be the last line of defense, somewhere along the line a password is always required.
Idk love to hear thoughts on this admittedly am low key drunk so maybe am saying dumb stuff
I have to agree with you. My biggest concern is not if they have my fingerprint because there isn't really much they can do with it. What I am concerned about is how much data they gather (and not just about be, for the same reason, but from groups) and what they can do with it to alter my world view.
I agree but I personally just assume every techgiant knows everything about me and not to trust anything I see through a screen without vetting it. I'm younger than Google so it's possible they knew about me before I was even born, whats the point in trying to hide myself from an entity that doesn't care about me but already knows more about me than everyone in my life possibly excluding myself.
