Have you ever used an ATM? Did you check that it didn't have embedded fingerprint readers in it?


Seems to work when I have my gloves on.


So does your iPhone's home button.


Yea but they explicitly say it has a fingerprint sensor.


Which seems like the more likely covert NSA spy device? The iPhone fingerprint sensor that Apple prominently mentioned in a product launch or the hidden ATM fingerprint sensor that your bank says isn't there?


It's probably where you least expect it, and you seem to be suggesting it's less expected in the iPhone ;).
