As far as I can see you are in fact lending credibility to a racist meme to support your own assertion about the security of Face ID.
> For what it's worth, the face recognition unlock is probably the most insecure unlock there is on the phone (and unsettling to me when I've tried it).

- tehjoker 5y agoIt is possible that the article was not credible. I was able to find reports of only two instances from 2017 of this being reported. The first did not come with verification. The second, below, did come with videos but it was extremely difficult to tell if the phone was the same model or even if FaceID was triggered due to the hard cuts and camera angles. A second video purported to show it switched off by a mask, but the action happens so quickly it's difficult to make out what exactly happened. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-5201881/The-iPhone-X-slammed-RACIST-Chinese-users.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-5201881/The-... I'll allow that I possibly fell for clickbait hysteria. If so, it does seem convenient for news to prepend a headline like "iPhone X Racist?" and then proceed with a racist trope to allow you to feel like it's not racist. I'll try to be more careful in the future.
