The Internet Had All of the Jokes When It Came to Apple ’s iPhone X Face ID

While some corners of the Internet devoted their time to discussing the snazzy features of the new iPhone models following Apple’s September presentation featuring their latest gadget offerings, there were other pockets of the web that found the humor in the event, particularly when Tim Cook had a wry moment introducing face ID for the iPhone X.
Cook explained that the new face ID function would still be secure because there was only a 1 in a million chance that your facial makeup would match with someone else’s unless you had an “evil twin,” a joke that the Internet collectively decided to have some fun with.

One Twitter ribbed Cook for the perceived vulnerability of the new model.

Did apple just say that the iPhone X is vulnerable to an Evil Twin attack? ;)

While another joked about the validity of an evil twin.

So, your evil twin can now unlock your iPhone X?

This user ironically offered gratitude for not having an evil twin IRL.

This iPhone X Face ID got me thankful I don't have an evil twin #AppleEvent
