Indeed, my understanding is these sensitive biometrics are generically (i) uploaded in full to a remote server, where they're (ii) retained for a nontrivial amount of time, because they need to be (iii) manually QA'd by humans. It's nothing like an iPhone's local-only biometrics enclave. My understanding's based on the specific case of Idenfy, and an ex-Idenfy HN'er explaining its workflow[0].

It’s likely your face in multiple angles already exists online whether from photos or videos, simply because you were in the background of someone else taking a photo or video.

I had to go through this shit show once in my life, in order to use Airbnb.

It's been a few years since I last used Airbnb and I regret that moment of weakness.

Interesting. Did you swap your face on a computer, and pointed the smartphone camera on the monitor?

Consumers don't know or want to know rather - ignorance is bliss when it comes to getting Children to spend relatively quiet time independently. Otherwise the GOP would be virtue-signalling about getting Roblox as a platform getting banned due to the preponderance of predators and material unsuitable or unsafe for children.

I live in Europe so there are still rules keeping Weyland-Yutani in line.

If you're in the US you're on your own I guess.

Its not that they dont care at all. They just dont care until they feel the pain of it, because they are optimising for short term satisfaction.
