    FaceID information is stored locally. You have to remember that FaceID isn’t just a picture - it’s a 3D depth scan using LIDAR. If every phone transmitted that information to Apple whenever phones were unlocked it would consume an absurd amount of data and thus money.

        That has been audited by third parties around the world. I detest Apple’s business practices, and even I know this ain’t it chief.
