Trick is not to use your right index finger as a biometric unlock finger (the button sits on the top right corner of the keyboard). If you are "forced" to unlock, the agents will guide your fingers and probably try that first 2-3 times. 2 more tries, and fingerprint reading gets disabled. Quite good odds.

This has long been true. In a pinch you can mash the power button 5+ times to require a key code at next unlock.

So in america, they can force you to use a biometric but they can't compel you to reveal your password?

I mean, i agree with you, but its a really weird line in the sand to draw
