Hello, my name is Hugh Jackman.
… you killed my father. Prepare to die.
It might be possible to fool it.
More important, it’s normalizing use of facial recognition in everyday situations. This is a very invasive tech and prime for abuse by increasingly totalitarian governments.
ICE: unlock your ph…ohh nevermind, it’s unlocked using your face.
Yeah, thanks but no thanks.
The biggest thing I’ll use is fingerprint on my phone, caus its comfy, and quickly disabled should the need arise
What could possibly go wrong ?
/s
Did i just time travel or is this the feature i have been refusing to use on my phone for almost a decade?
Yeah November 2017; 8 years ago
Is this implemented very different technologically speaking?

The article doesn’t go into any length to explain the technology. But assuringly its just an encrypted passcode created with an algorithm using measured face data.
Crafting a secure reliable personal id based on pure visual appearance has been tricky and when this came out i disliked it but it was clearly a feat.
What is the story here?
Google trusting this technology?
Them adding age verification to it?
I am just confused what makes this enough of something to write/post it.
Very different, I would say. The security implication of authorising you on a new device is much more severe than logging you into a device you are already authorised against.

Conceptionally yes. You can refuse to unlock your phone with your face. You cannot refuse to allow Google to access your account (and thus your phone, too) with a picture of your face -no matter how bad the tech is- if Google implements this.
You will have to set this feature up ahead of time if you want the option of regaining account access with a selfie later on.
faceId is completely in device. This is a video that is sent to google to process
As I’ve said before: HOW ABOUT NO
