I'm particularly interested in beards because whenever the idiots that run this site add pictures they are quite often of guys with beards. And every one of their idiots AI bots has a beard.

Modern devices like smartphones and computers can be configured to use biometrics (ex: fingerprints, facial recognition) to identify the user and grant access to the device. Biometrics replace older security systems like passwords, passcodes, and PINs.

Do you use biometrics on your phone or computer, or do you continue to use passcodes?

If you do, have you thought about what might happen if you are incapacitated and someone else needs to access your device?

Please vote in the poll.

Feel free to add an opinion, and let us know if you also use two-factor authorization, typically a phone call or text message with a code that you must enter to get access.

THAT IS SOME DONKEY DICK BULLSHIT RIGHT THERE!!! They're meant to do the same purpose - DENY ACCESS!! Looks like another email to my congressional prostitute!!

USA courts have generally held that the Fifth Amendment protects passcodes but not biometrics. The Fifth Amendment guards against self-incrimination by prohibiting law enforcement from compelling individuals to provide "testimonial" evidence—something that reveals the contents of their mind, like a memorized passcode. In contrast, biometrics such as fingerprints or facial recognition are considered physical characteristics, not testimonial communication, so courts have ruled that police can compel you to unlock devices with them.

However, there is no nationwide consensus, and some state courts have interpreted these protections differently, leading to a patchwork of rulings across the country. Generally, though, passcodes are more likely to be protected under the Fifth Amendment than biometrics.
