...you are not wrong.
like even for the you can't change password thing.

but also just people knowing your biometrics for basic ID reasons is weird.

but I want to use biotech for SOMETHING :(

@edensaesthetic that's just it--are they "my" biometrics even?

it's repugnant to me that anyone would even want to try to decide what identity means in any way that isn't completely contingent and individually consensual (hi queer theory)

anyway, here's a list with some biotech that we should do once we've built up some more resources https://gitlab.com/snippets/1671440

@amphetamine yeah, I get that, like it's more using biometrics to identify you, not your biometrics?

more cool would be implanting tech you could use for 2FA into yourself. I risk losing my phone and that has all my 2FA stuff on, less likely to lose an arm.

@edensaesthetic @amphetamine until it has all your stuff in. expect "arm theft" to become a reasonably common crime

there's not much difference between body essentialism and gender essentialism imo (or techbros on the street and techbros in your auth mechanism)

(h/t @srn​ for this article which fae shared and critiqued before)

@amphetamine @edensaesthetic @srn also interesting http://www.laboriacuboniks.net/20150612-xf_layout_web.pdf

@a_breakin_glass @edensaesthetic @srn oh yes, we are all about #xenofem too :)
