I jest but the majority of the "normal" people I know are happy to hand over biometrics because _it's easier_. We need to start branding biometrics as "forever passwords" or something to help people understand just what they're handing over when they validate access to their checking account or enter Disney World or whatever else.
Fingerprints, DNA, iris scans, gait patterns, etc. are all something you can't change (much like a permanent account ID) and are constantly being presented to the world (much like an email address). In addition under US law, police can compel presentation of fingerprints, but passwords are protected under the 5th amendment.
So I could easily see a lot of people viewing this as a positive.
Them being forever passwords is the value prop. The risk scene has changed, but that was essentially always the pitch.
in a certain light, it's kind of admirable. they live like the world is the way it should be
