   Ah.. So, this problem only pertained to "transit" payments and     
   that transit users were able to get free rides?   
      
   I thought the issue was "may result in bad actors bypassing the     
   lock screen and making fraudulent payments".  In otherwords..     
   someone ELSE could use the transit feature on a locked iPhone     
   or something.
