If it happened would any PR department admit it? so far the tactic of waiting for someone to unlock a phone then robbing them has been effective. as soon as it becomes required behaviour it will happen. so far there are methods of hijacking a phone from its original owner, even without the phone in hand [simjacking] and as such tactics are stymied, other more brutal force methods would be required.

You really don’t think that would make the news? Why would you have to depend on the PR department? It sounds like another panic without any basis in reality.

And now, that phones are moving toward face recognition isn’t kind of a moot point?
