Theirs is better than the standard old fingerprint scanners and far better than using 'nothing' which is what they are replacing. They have blown nothing out of proportion.

if it causes people to behave recklessly because they have the false impression of security, when they would otherwise have taken better custodianship of their device and their data, then yes ... it can be worse than nothing.

  That shouldn't be an issue considering most people don't have a passcode set.

    Another option would be to just require a PIN (or both a PIN and fingerprint).

      Yeah, that's going to move consumer devices. "Now harder to use!"

  What would you call more reckless than having no passcode at all?
