The current 2FA methods, something you have and something you know, are better than the proposed methods.
Under the new method, something you have and something you are, hackers/feds only require your device to get into your accounts. Feds especially can extract your biometrics: simply force your hand against the fingerprint reader or take your picture. They have a much greater difficulty extracting your passwords, they must compel you to reveal that information through fines or torture (aka the hammer to the kneecap principle).
The decent thing about face login on iPhone is you can set it to require your attention before unlocking the phone. So closing your eyes or looking away from the phone will prevent unauthorised unlocks.
Found out? Thats inherent to its design. You mean people suddenly realized what they’ve signed up for. Any biometric security method implies constant surveillance.
No one would expect a biometric verification to be firing off when its not being used to verify the user, dumbass. Unless you think everyone buying iphone xxx'es is an einstein.

It depends on the state as to whether or not a warrant can compel you to give your password. It kinda hinges on how allowable "I forgot" is. After all, it's really hard to prove you know it.
The feds really want into your accounts.

They found out that iPhones do a 3D face scan every 5 seconds, not just on the lock screen.

There's a setting in there that prevents the phone from dimming or locking if you're looking at it; the repeated scan may be related.
I turned that off primarily because it made my eyes feel a little odd.
So now its a weapon too, great.
Well the legal way is a warrant.

For an online service a warrant to the company will get them your info. Your password is irrelevant to the company hosting the service.
For a file it's just a matter of brute forcing it.
For a device like your phone, I haven't kept up with where that's at, but I'm betting the company has a way to crack it given a warrant.
To quote what I'm reaponding to:
Pretty sure this must be an online service.
