I would LOVE it if I could use keybase to send a copy of my passport to companies (for example) which is nessesary for day to day life, and always done in a redicously insecure way. :(
- chrismatheson 8y agoTo be clear, I 100% support keybase, and if I thought there was a chance in hell of getting some other non-tech person to use it, I would put in the effort. I just don’t see myself being able to convince some recruiter, or HR person or something to sign up and install keybase just to get a file from me

- michaelmior 8y agoSounds like what Telegram Passport is trying to do. https://telegram.org/blog/passport https://telegram.org/blog/passport
- chrismatheson 8y agoIts a much bigger stretch to have companies change the underlying method of verification instead of the method of transport though ...
- ssalazars 8y agoI've thought about this problem, specially in LATAM countries were gov agencies are still ages behind in terms of security/compliance and sharing these type of documents. There is definitely a need for this.
