Apple’s Touch ID Bypassed by Fingerprint Image, Fake ‘Gelatin Finger’

Personally, I'm suspect of the validity of both these claims.

Yet, I'll play along and say sure, they managed to hack it and can use these methods to get into your phone. The questions then remain; who has the wherewithal to obtain all the resources to accomplish this, most importantly a hi-res image of your fingerprint? And second, unless you're a government agent or high ranking exec at a multi-billion dollar corporation, who the f#@% would go through all that trouble just to get into your phone???

Just sayin...
