Ruling: Thumbprint scan is like a “blood draw or fingerprint taken at booking.”

I think Apple gets this a little bit more right. A hold of power and volume up locks it and requires the pin to unlock.

i believe this apple update was introduced after the court which ruled that it is ok to force you to unlock with the fingerprint, but not ok to demand the pin.
there was a case when police wanted to unlock a gangster’s girlfriend iphone.
