    I kind of don’t like to store my fingerprints with Google. Even FBI collects them when you are indicted.

    What about allowing us to log in to services via asymmetric keys?

      You don’t have to store them with Google. Passkeys are supported in both iOS and Android natively. Within the last few months both Bitwarden and 1Password support storing passkeys as well.

      It is just an asymmetric key. Phones try to store them securely but you could use an app to just generate them and store your key wherever.

      Note that you pretty much can’t store them with Google or Apple; smartphone biometric sensors operate the on-device HSM, not something remote.
