Are you sure. I mean, I know it's tinfoil and the refusal to open phones for the FBI is debunking it, but we've given Apple a database of our fingerprints and now our facial ids as well as constant real time location data of our whereabouts.
It's probably not abused, but how can we really know in the post Snowden world.

- danielparks 9y agoApple has repeatedly stated that Touch ID and Face ID data does not leave the device, including for backups. “Face ID data doesn’t leave your device and is never backed up to iCloud or anywhere else.” (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208108 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208108) “[Your fingerprint data] can’t be accessed by the OS on your device or by any applications running on it. It's never stored on Apple servers, it's never backed up to iCloud or anywhere else, and it can't be used to match against other fingerprint databases.” (https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208108 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208108)
