  17. Looking at support.google.com/pixelphone/ and androidcentral.com/how-does-an, I'm curious what y'all think about modern #Android devices' "Trusted Execution Environment" storing #fingerprints (for authentication, unlocking, etc.) in, allegedly, a TPM-backed secure enclave that the OS doesn't have access to (really?)… For Pixel phones, Google claims biometrics never leave the TEE enclave, never touch servers, etc.

    I wouldn't use it to travel… but local? I saw some geek friends using it.

  27. 🤯 Your face is data. And if you don't know who owns it, you're already at risk. #Deepfakes, facial recognition, and #biometrics. These technologies are blurring the line between who you are and who controls your data. But is the law keeping up? We break down the fight for digital rights! ✊
