but they can physically force your finger onto a reader. physically restrain you to do a face scan, and forcibly hold you down for an eye scan. They are not safe, or secure. Biometrics are less secure than setting your password to 1234 and carving “password is 1234” into your keyboard.
No, you choose to give up the password. You can die without ever giving up. You can choose to go to jail without giving it up. You can choose to be fired without giving it up.
Even if you die, your biometrics can still be used against you, against your will
If the encryption is correctly configured then that doesn’t matter. The only vulnerability that matters is in the encryption algorithm and that’s very difficult to brute force or get a vulnerability for. Though at some point you’re dealing with rubber hose cryptography where you have do deal with not knowing the password yourself.
Well… this is just another reason to never activate biometrics. Police typically need a warrent for passwords, not for biometrics.
biometrics were never safe to begin with.
you cant be forced to give a password.

I mean… you can absolutely be forced to give up your password. They just might keep it quiet…

Even with passwords they just attach some Israeli hacker machine and they’ll break in
No that only works in some instances. A correctly configured not iOS computer should be resistant to that.
Until they find a CVE they can use sure
Plenty of those in motherboards, TPMs, CPUs, software, OS, etc.
