But then you’ve created dozens (or hundreds) of opportunities a day for someone to get your passcode by shoulder-surfing, which you probably wouldn’t even notice in many situations. I’d argue that unless someone forcibly borrowing your face or fingers to unlock your phone is a strong possibility, entering a passcode each time is less secure than using biometrics.
Especially since the passcode also protects various security settings.
Trying to or successfully shutting down will quickly disable it. I don’t think the USA is at the point where we should all worry about arbitrary arrests.
Well, I can confirm from personal experience (me and family) that tourists wanting to enter the US aren’t treated that much differently from criminals.
Just don’t ever use biometrics for anything.

“All” may not need to worry, but there are plenty of people who do experience them.
Wrong!

I’ve resisted them so far 😇
