Can you expand on why one primary key == one account == one user doesn't hold true when you want to provide support for multiple users? In case of Google Home, each user has their own Google account and the device decides which account to use based on who's asking. How is the one primary key == one account == one user concept changing here?
- MBCook 10y agoYou're right you can use completely different keys to access completely different account and it may not be that bad. But what happens when there's shared resources and none of your systems were designed for that? The idea that comes to the top of my head would be controlling lights and appliances in the house. You don't have two completely different sets of lights and appliances in one house just because there are two users, it's the same set of things for both. But that means now you have to know that both users are sharing X while some other thing (such as a Gmail calendar) may be individual to each user.
