Your thoughts on the future of passwords
Every year, around 130,000 Kiwis fall victim to identity theft, with passport details the most commonly stolen information.
We’re wondering what Wellingtonians think about the use of biometric identifiers to unlock devices. Not just physical markers such as fingerprints and facial recognition, but also behavioural characteristics such as finger movements and gestures.
Would you feel safer online if you didn’t have to remember a list of passwords? Or would you feel uneasy about your device being able to recognise you from your micro-movements, for example? And, have you ever had your personal information stolen?
