I'm thinking you could just hold a picture of the person up to the phone to hack em. Just go to their Facebook and hold their phone up to the screen and BAM unlocked. Right?

That hack has been confirmed but the problem I have with that is usually if u loose ur phone or its stolen, it usually happens n public places. So if someone steals it or u loose it, how r they gonna know what u look like??? The only people capable of this would be people around u that knows its urs, friends, family members, etc. I don't tend to keep untrustworthy people around so for the most part it should do its job I would thank.

Yeah, it's more of a "stranger" security.

Your friends/family can get into it fairly easily, especially if they have your facebook or something. If you leave it on the bus or something, then no stranger can access it. Most of all though I think it was a convenience feature than a security.
