I like that they sell a version that lacks touch ID so I cannot be compelled to unlock my Mac by US law enforcement without a warrant.

You can also just not choose to enroll any fingerprints in Touch ID. It’s totally optional even if you have the hardware.


You actually trust law enforcement not to use rubber hose decryption or a little less severe not to just hold you in contempt?


Touch ID is an optional feature.

You don’t have to buy a specific model without it. Just don’t use it.


You can just not setup touch id, right?
