Should you be able to plead the Fifth when a judge forces you to use your fingerprints to unlock an iPhone?

Legal experts are arguing that this goes against the Fifth Amendment’s protection against self-incrimination because the authorities would then have access to potentially-incriminating personal data stored on the device.
