A free press committed to truth requires patient investors, in an era of click-bait and fake journalism.

"TSMC's second-generation technology, which is said to play a key role in chip production, will apparently make Samsung's chances of regaining application processor orders for a future iPhone unlikely."

Even if it does not have fingerprint identification (Touch ID), the iPhone Pro will have multiple tools for 'guessing' whether its owner is present. Those include face recognition, voice recognition, key words (verbal), on-screen finger gestures or finger positioning, a prearranged movement of the entire device or the presence of a designated Apple Watch. Probabilities could be instantly computed by iPhone Pro, and any uncertainty could trigger other tests. Apple engineers have access to on-board AI, and can make use of a wide range of identifiers that we users may not even be aware of.

This DID "come to pass." Write the check.
