My old iPhone 6S used my thumbprint to unlock. In a dry environment it worked great. If my thumb was just a little wet from sweat, like on an active summer day or if I just washed my hands, it was useless.

I see that entire car as something they can be hacked by bad guys, or used as a great way to track the occupants from the manufacturer. We all know that all the many huge cities in China are choked with bad air quality from cars. Electric will move that pollution to the power plants, mostly coal powered so nothing is gained for the planet, but the cities are a little cleaner.

I remember the days as a kid when getting a toy or gizmo from Japan was almost an insult, it was all crap. Then they decided that quality was more important that low price. When China can change the mindset of making quality and not try to make a few extra bucks and substitute ingredients to make dog food pass a test but it makes it kill pets, they will start the road to real competition.
