Unlike the author, I have a long passphrase on 1password and find the ability to use the fingerprint sensor a godsend.
I've found that the Touch Bar will freeze up sometimes and make it impossible to regulate volume (though muting still works). But this seems to be part of the general neglect of OS X rather than a drawback of the hardware.
- SomeHacker44 9y agoI don't use the TouchID. The last thing I want is my authentication to be coerced by just knocking me out and using my finger. My pass phrase may also be able to be coerced but not by law abiding people and government agents.
- konceptz 9y agoI have the same quandary while traveling abroad. Giving your fingerprints while entering a country means you're giving the country your passwords.
- idlewords 9y agoI turn the TouchID feature off while traveling. I think it's important to have different habits with phone and computer security when you're on the move, and I hope it becomes the accepted practice.
