this is why I always laugh when people use biometrics. best case scenario, they use whatever it’s locked behind with you under duress. Worst case? they take whatever.
I dont get it. In that cenario, using Biometrics is not less secure as that wrench would convince you of telling the password.
Btw biometrics dont work on first boot on android, or after you used the wrong finger a few times on GrapheneOS. They will also implement a duress long-powerbutton-press feature in some future, to reboot the phone.
The random person the receptionist let into the main office is not likely to chop my finger off to access my phone or computer. I don’t use biometrics because I don’t want Samsung and Microsoft having my fingerprints for their eventual reconstruction of humanity into Tleilaxu gholas in service to the shareholders.
Lol, he used this comic in the video as an example of what to do against a Wrench Attack (CVE-1800-4096), to shoot them before they beat you with the wrench.

Security that is impossible to defeat is literally logically impossible

A password is safer because they will need you alive and conscious. To bypass the biometrics, you just need the body part.
At least they need to keep you conscious and able to speak if its a password tho. Small mercies.
Okay maybe

the random person that wandered in is also unlikely to ask you for your keys or your password
