Not technically Hardware, as it refers to a new proposed standard, but does require hardware for functionality, and I didn't see a "Security" in software
Has anyone looked at this proposal, which basically wants to eliminate passwords in favor of biometrics? I am NOT impressed. The courts already have ruled that you can be required, without a warrant, to unlock devices with biometrics. The main reason my Pix2 doesn't use the fingerprint reader. I've got nothing on it that would even remotely get me in trouble (with the possible exception of my ex-wife, if she saw some of the comments between myself and Mrs. Ahhzz heheh), but I would prefer that if the cops want to see in my phone, they have reasonable reason to do so, and have gone thru the process of law to do it. I understand the court's decision makes it "Legal", and indeed, "the process of law" to access my phone via biometrics, I just disagree. If they legitimately feel that there's something on my phone they want to see, they can get a judge to agree.
I'll stick with my passwords, thanks.
