It's quite odd. Here's a device that can listen to everything you say all day long, that can read all of your e-mail, take pictures of you and your surroundings, sniff all of your passwords, etc. etc. etc., but people are freaking out because it might be stealing your fingerprints, which you leave thousands of on various public surfaces every day anyway? I just don't get it.

Typical initial outrage at something new. The phone already logs your every move yet people have already forgotten about it and clearly don't care.
