alt Hacker Newsor we could use asymmetric biometric fingerprints. Turns out features can be extracted into public and private sets, and both are required for a match. I hold a patent on it btw

I remain very skeptical of fingerprints.
They are both too mutable (cuts and burns will alter them) and not mutable enough (you can't re-roll your fingerprints after a leak).
On top of that, you are also literally leaving them on everything you touch, making it trivial for anyone in your physical presence to steal them.
They are probably pretty decent for police use, but I don't believe they are a good replacement for current tech when it comes to remote auth.
