A S. Korea security firm already broke it as well with an ultra-HD 3d printer and made a mask of the person who's face had locked the phone.
Did they provide sufficient documentation? Because a Vietnam firm had claimed that earlier but no one believed them.
I only skimmed the article, but it was claimed as a proof of concept.
The claim that people have made is that Apple tested this and it can't be done. I'm not sure why Apple testing that would mean it can't be done, but that's the basis for the claims against the tech. That and a mask doesn't address the iris scanning, but who knows if they really do that or just claim it.
The article specifically said they had printed an ultra-hd mask, and use it to login to the phone. I'm assuming this includes the eyes and everything.
It was stated that it was really impractical based on the cost of the printer used to get that mask. And as such was a proof of concept that the tech was "easily broken".

Can you print irises?

Any idea on the price?

And by the time they find someone that looks like you, you can track them and lock the phone via iCloud....
Assuming people have that set up. I can probably count on one hand the number of people I know who actually know how to do that.

You do that during initial phone setup, I think. I haven't set up new phone in almost 2 years so my memory is flaky here. Using it after fact, now that might be challenging.

Apple testing? I believe that without question!!! (said the crapple fanboi sheeple)
Anybody have some REAL test results, preferably the kind that don't involve turtleneck wearing douches and their high dollar product announcements?

ya that's what I meant. They may set it up, but I meant I don't know very many people that would be able to leverage it if they needed to.

I think it's less about knowing how vs knowing that the feature exists at all.
Sure you go through setup, check the box and then never think about it again. IF they ever logged into their iCloud account, there is a huge button - locate your phone - that makes it pretty impossible to miss if you've logged in there and looked around.

I just like apples, what can I say?
