Face scanning and age verification is the big new privacy invading feature of this decade. Meanwhile almost every single iPhone user has given away all of that for years, just to unlock their phone. (lemmy.ml)

    Or maybe better if op could spend 5 minutes to do their research before posting inaccurate claims.

    Probably he or she is simplifying the explanation because shared biometrics login doesn’t necessarily indicate that biometrics is stored locally.

    But it’s true that no cloud nor third party involved in storing biometrics information.

    how do you know?

    my point is there is no way to know that. you can believe things, but that may or may not be the case.

    That what apple says.

    No body can confirm without reviewing iOS source code.

    Edit: spelling correction

    then I have a bridge to sell you. you just need to register on our website. register to the raffle too with your address and phone number and you may win the bridge for free, but don't worry we value your privacy.

    that's what I say. surely it's all honest and true. you will have to believe us, because nobody can confirm it.

    You are right, sorry about that. Just tired of people spreading bullshit and then by the time the truth gets said the lies have gone halfway around the world. People need to verify stuff before posting their every thought and whim.

    I understand, thanks for being a sport. And I agree with you, we are overwhelmed with rumors, lies, and propaganda all the time so it's hard to stick to facts. In the case of op here, they were just trying to share an idea they had, and I've been in their position many times when I sounded like an ignorant schmuck when I just wanted to express a thought i had.
