What I missed from the article is the usual: biometric authentication is not secure.

(Yes, I'm linking YouTube because unlike popular belief, some channels are actually informative, or some make it easy for us to understand the content.)

I would never use my fingerprint for authentication, because it's a flawed concept. The problem is, that your fingerprint is not a password. It's more like a username. That's because you leave your fingerprint everywhere, it's practically public information. The same can be told about your face.
