I do not like biometric idea at all, because we can change password,
   but how can I change biometric measurements in the moment, something
   goes wrong? E.g. digital copy of biometrics is stolen [and that will
   happen for sure].

   Biometic is useless for me.

   I'm not really sure what's ephemeral about redefining authentication
   to mean continuous monitoring.
   This work directly targets insider threat concerns raised
   post-Snowden, and provides further evidence that entities obsessed
   with secrecy will destroy their own effectiveness in pursuit of an
   improbable if not impossible definition of "security" which attempts
   to hermetically seal systems that include human beings.
   Good luck with that!
