TouchID requires me to touch the device. I _know_ when I'm identified. FaceID works at a distance, data could easily leak to any number of surveillance programs, corporate or governmental.

Do you know what distance? I mean, literally no-one has an iPhone X right now to test this.

Never leaves the Secure Enclave on the phone - same as Touch ID.

You're commenting on an article written by a guy with an iPhoneX

True but which mentions nothing about Face ID working at a distance or whether he even tested that.

The data won't be leaked.
