One thing that struck me while reading this announcement is that if Apple had gotten on board with this idea the latest MacBook Pro may have had a better reception. Imagine hardware specifically built into your laptop to facilitate FIDO U2F security keys. Whether that's a device like those offered by YubiKey or an NFC reader, making U2F available and simple to use would be a great thing. Maybe it could even replace GPG/PGP for common uses. Then again, maybe the recent Bluetooth 5 announcement will be enough to drive adoption. Or possibly the next iPhone / Pixel could act as a U2F device. Maybe then we could get "normal" people to use real security instead of asking them what street they grew up on or what their mother's maiden name is.
