If we're going to have single signon for the world, and finally get rid of passwords, it should not be locked into one OS platform.
If I sign on from Apple, how go I log in on my Linux desktop or non Apple device?

- clay_the_ripper 7y agoWell as an end user, I do trust Apple. I want to put this in the hands of a for profit company that has the reach and know how to make this viable right now, not in some far distant future where adoption is low. While I like the idea, in practical terms the goal is: 1. Make a login system that is private, secure and easy 2. Have it be widely adopted right now 3. Have it work forever, seamlessly A for profit company with the reach of Apple is the perfect solution for all three points.
