MS is trying to keep up. But what for?
It's been already proven that fingerprint readers and face recognition-based thingamabobs can be fooled with ease.
I'd think retina scans will be very trickable in the next 5 years or so.

Fully patched versions of Firefox, Chrome, IE 11 and Safari exploited at Pwn2Own hacking competition

Yes. Firefox released an update to address this, specifically.
I wonder how much time/resources were spend on find this hole.
Was the 15k worth it?
