Google is launching "selfie for sign-in"
Google and Meta both launch facial biometrics on the very same day.
Two of the world’s biggest data-hungry tech giants are now pushing biometric identity into everyday online authentication.
- Google has launched 'selfie for sign-in,' enabling users to access their accounts through a biometric face scan.
- Meta is rolling out facial verification to confirm there’s a “real person” behind a profile.
The rollouts raise fresh questions over privacy, security, and who ultimately controls your digital identity.
