Some computer geeks (sounds better than hackers) say they have figured out how to access the new fingerprint security on iphones.

Apple may wish they'd advertised "a cool feature" instead of "a security feature"...

    WOW! This ALSO makes one think that MAYBE you COULD use a dead finger. You could certainly use a dead finger to do THIS. SCARY! A football player recently lost the tip of a finger. My MOTHER did also. I have known OTHERS. What if THAT happened with the finger you used? AFIS records, and the like, record ALL fingers, just in case.

    Nothing like giving the NSA this easy an access to all of your data. Wonder if they paid Apple to make this "hot new" feature?

    I think I'll stick to my iPhone 5 now. I've been planning on buying the 5S but now I'm having second thoughts... I've read positive reviews about the 5S but this article is seriously making me change my mind of buying the new phone.
