Passkeys aren't protected when it comes to laws regarding self-incrimination and searches. Information encrypted and locked behind a password, something only you know, is protected.

Until laws surrounding biometrics are changed, I personally won't move to passkeys. There have been cases where biometrics have been protected under the same category as pins and passwords but there have also been cases where it was not.
