The NSA is upset big time about this. Apple decided not to transmit any finger print data over the internet and they’re not storing it on any servers either.

Why cause the NSA doesn't have you fingerprints? Can you link to an article supporting your theory? I'm not trying to be a smart-a$$. I'm really curious. (Promise not to call you "fanboy")

I promise not to call you a FANdroid either. So I guess we’re even.

Fingerprint sensors were a non issue when they started appearing on Windows Laptops just a few years ago. Apple’s fingerprint sensor is a non issue as well.

It might be quite a different situation altogether on Android devices though. Google has been known to steal info from its users (see wifi case in the US and EU). I could see scenarios where Google might take your fingerprint and sell it to an advertiser just to make an additional penny.
