World wide or only in the states?

The biometrics are not the problem rather than the front facing camera. An under-display front facing camera will not be competitive in 2023. For the Face ID sensors this might work fine as it works differently then photography but In order to achieve high quality pictures with the front facing camera you still need an “outside” camera, presumably somewhere in the frame or a hole-punch. In fact, there were some rumours of a hole-punch coming to iPhones in 2022 already.

Why would Sony do that – if Epic wins, the PlayStation Store is next.

"Find My" is part and parcel of iOS, whereas with Android it's probably just an app, and thus not counted in this study.

"Find my (device)" is a built in setting on both platforms and hence works the same on both Android and iOS. The accompanying apps are not installed by default (it used to on iOS but not anymore since iOS 11 or somewhere around that time iirc) and not necessary either. Instead, you can use icloud.com and your Google account respectively to find your device.
Both platforms ask if you want to use this feature when setting up a new device so you have to actively subscribe to this feature in order to use it.

Why the study claims that Google is not gathering location data is beyond me though, many of Google's features (e.g. traffic predictions and peak times for places) are based on location data (and it works so well because every Android user is involuntarily contributing to it).

What the heck, is it April 1st already?
