Microsoft use it, so that's pretty widespread. Password change at least once a year or whenever you have to type it and realise you've no idea what your password is. Hello doesn't use the camera so not really what's been around for 30 years since laptops have not had the tech for 30 years. It falls back just fine; the device does know the credentials even when the user forgets. The difference here is that credentials aren't constantly being typed in front of strangers or sent over the Internet so the barrier to Pwning someone is higher than 8 year old kids with a script.
