Re:Stop Using Your Face or Thumb to Unlock Your Phone by sonofhans on Saturday April 27, 2024 @03:09PM (#40182558)
This is stupid and reckless advice. The perfect is the enemy of the good. Practically nobody will set a robust, multi-character passphrase and use it dozens of times a day.

The vast majority of people will never be troubled by law enforcement; phone theft is much more common. Shoulder-surfing someone’s password and grabbing their phone to run out the closing subway doors has been A Thing for decades now.
