gollark: Fingerprint login kind of works since you just need to compare the fingerprint against the one which is stored, and it doesn't matter much if you can feed it fake fingerprints somehow.
gollark: Well, if you want some horrible "trusted fingerprint scanners" thing, then bee you and also someone will break it.
gollark: Unless you want some accursed DRM-type scheme.
gollark: That... is not meaningful?
gollark: Either your thing just uses the fingerprint to authenticate that you are X person (horrible privacy issue), or I can generate fake fingerprints rapidly.
