    fingerprint / iris scan

    Nope, I’m out. I’m not giving my unchangeable biological data to the Computer Gods because A) Fuck that and B) the police in my country can compel the use of biometrics to unlock things but cannot compel you to give up your pass as it is protected by the first amendment. Yes I think the bios should be protected too but that isn’t the reality in which I live.

      From the person you replied to, emphasis mine:

      You could also start with just one of these

        I’m cool with non-biometrics.

        (Though “3fa” and “could also” does imply he meant to use all three in concert, but that “just one” would be better than none.)

      Yeah that factor may not be wanted. But it is a security factor, because only you have it.

      You could hash it securely so the computer gods dont know your fingerprint. And you could only use it in addition to another factor.
