All they have to do is paste "2D printed infrared images of eyes use the
same technology that is used by Face ID in detecting facial image."
Says so right here:

It's so easy to fool, we can come up with a dozen ways to fool it, and
we're not even security professionals.
There must be hundreds upon hundreds of ways to fool it by someone with a
couple hundreds bucks to spend (hint ... CIA, KGB, FBI, criminals, etc.).

You think the FBI cares about failed attempts?
That mask cost 200 bucks for heaven's sake.
Comey, your twin brother, spent more than that just *printing* his resume
for heaven's sake.

You think that's going to slow down the CIA/FBI/KGB?
They must be licking their lips in glee over Apple's face id marketing
fiasco.
> a dead person can't tell you the passcode, so once it locks, game over.
You wish. We can come up with a dozen ways right off the bat which will
work. You think the CIA doesn't have people who understand this stuff.
They must have HUNDREDS of ways to trick it.
Face it, Face ID is a gimmick to make apple users *feel* safe.
It doesn't help anyone be safe (it's actually worse than a passcode because
your face is farmed out to foreign servers).
Apple marketing won't tell you that because they are marketing a gimmick.
