It's bad enough that a lot of sites/apps want your phone number and location info. If I'm requited to provide fingerprints or pictures to use a device, I don't need that device.

The electronic economy [cashless] and biometrics will be the primary government and commercial means of extinguishing anonymity.

PassKeys — a coming industry-wide standard

The new PassKey system means no passwords are stored on any single website, instead linked to the "device in your hand". An Apple device will act as an authenticator, generating a public-private key pair for each of the device user's accounts.

The device retains the private key, and shares the public key with the server. They are "next-generation credentials that are more secure, easy to use, and designed to replace passwords," Apple said in a statement.
