wtf are they doinghttps://www.engadget.com/2221520/google-adds-selfie-video-log-in/You'll now be able to use selfie videos to log into your Google account. It has long been possible to log into Google using your face, via your phone's face unlock or if your passkey login uses biometrics for verification. This is yet another option to get into your account using your face to authenticate your identity, which could be especially useful if you don't have access to the phone or computer you typically use or if you got locked out of your account and none of the other log-in options are working.Google will ask you to turn your head in certain ways during the verification and every time you use the option to log in. The company says it's to fend off impersonation attempts, such as deepfake videos, and prove you're currently in front of the camera. It will, of course, have to save your selfie video and use it for comparison for future logins.The company says it will encrypt your video and only use to help you sign in, but if you ever change your mind, you can delete it from your Google account.
query: isnt it a worse thing if AI can generate a video of YOU and log you in, into some device you never actually used, to make YOU being connected to murder which you never did because in truth you were in entirely different state at that time?heres something that cannot be simply fabricated:a strong password which is 33 characters long, no computer will crunch through it
>>539523713i dont own a camera
>>539523792worse for what? security, absolutely. snatching your biometric data and who knows what other info about your life under the guise of convenience? this seems like the way to go.
I opened an account for something which made me use an app in instead of being able to log into a desktop site which is pozzed and gay in and of itself, but then the app wanted me to do this "turn your head left then right" shit so I just cancelled my account and used a different provider.
