> edit: Upon further reflection, I see no reason why my argument above couldn't be applied to fingerprint sensors on smartphones, which I personally use and don't have much of a problem with...

I'm no longer sure of exactly where I stand on the facial scan issue. Your face can be (and in parts of the UK, is) scanned passively very easily. Your fingerprint less easily.
