Collecting biometrics for
supposedly flawless identification purposes is a false good idea.

Once it gets leaked, and it will inevitably at some point, this identification becomes reproducible and therefore useless. It only seems like a good idea now because not enough of it has been leaked everywhere yet. Yet...

Keep this in mind.

Protect your biometric data as much as feasible: https://infosec.exchange/@Em0nM4stodon/112572992216366084

Tiny Privacy Tip πŸ‘οΈπŸ”’βœ¨: Biometric data is one of the most sensitive type of data you have. Why? You cannot change biometric data like you can change a password. If your password gets leaked, you can change it easily πŸ”‘πŸ”‘πŸ”‘πŸ”‘ If your email gets leaked, it's a pain but you can change it βœ‰οΈβœ‰οΈβœ‰οΈ If your phone number gets leaked, it's an even bigger pain but you still can change it πŸ“žπŸ“ž But when your fingerprints, facial print, voice print, keystroke pattern get leaked? It's game over ☠️ You cannot change any of these. Ever. You should be extremely careful about where you are sharing your biometric data and how it is protected. For all biometrics, preventive protection is vital. #TinyPrivacyTip #Privacy #Biometrics #BiometricData

@Em0nM4stodon I wonder, if you had someone’s DNA. Like via 23 and me. How hard would it be to clone a couple strands of hair? Or maybe some skin cells, could this be used to frame someone for a crime?
