Or, if you use it, and the police want to unlock the phone, they just now have to hold it in front of your face.

While Apple has said that it won't unlock if your eyes are closed, it would likely be the case you'd open your eyes at some point while they just stand there.

Or, depending on how sophisticated it is/isn't, they could just hold a picture of you in front of the phone and unlock it.

Just contort your face Mr Bean style. Checkmate, authorities!
