(December 24, 2024 - December 31, 2024)

● Apple is rumored to be incorporating metalens technology into the iPhone 17's Face ID system. This advancement could lead to smaller, more efficient biometric hardware and potentially pave the way for under-display biometrics in the future.

● Social media platforms are facing increased regulatory scrutiny worldwide, particularly concerning age verification and content moderation. Australia's under-16 social media ban and similar measures in other countries highlight this trend.

● President Biden signed the GSA Technology Accountability Act, a significant step toward modernizing digital identity management in the U.S. The act promotes standardized, secure, and user-centric digital identity frameworks across federal agencies.

● Biometric adoption continues to rise globally. Vietnam enrolled 70 million people in its national biometric ID database, and West Virginia expanded its mobile driver's license (mDL) rollout.

● The podcast also covers developments in areas such as digital wallets, AI regulation, and executive appointments in the identity sector.
