So were fingerprint scanners before Apple's take on it.

You can do this by taking a photo of a finger or lifting a print.

A 2d photo won't unlock FaceID. There are 3D sensors on the front for a reason.
>Even if the system uses infrared or 3D images or whatever, it's just a matter of developing an advanced enough algorithm to deal with that, which shouldn't take that long if the target market is there (hundreds of millions of iphones with such an auth system).
And you think 3D printing a skull, eyes, and possibly blood vessels is easier than copying a finger? Why do you act like you know so much about something that hasn't been tested in the wild?
