Google is not entitled to my personal banking information or any other PII! WTF if I go to a store and want to buy I will.

    Just ignore this.

    The major downside of biometrics is that if you get caught, they can force your finger on the phone or force you to look at the front camera.

      Yep. I don’t allow biometrics to unlock my devices for this reason. Purchase something? Sure thing! Unlock? Hell no.

        If you know you’re about to be in a shady place, you can do a quick restart or lockdown mode on both Android and iPhone. So you still get to use biometrics, but turn it off when you know you might be in some shit soon.
