You seem to be missing the point of both Tedd's post and my response. Tedd's point is that it's hard to understand OpenID and implement it. My point is that it's easy.
- axod 18y agoWell the overwhelming point is that for the average user, OpenID solves nothing, confuses them, and offers no benefit. It also does more harm than good IMHO opening the door to countless phishing attacks.
- christefano 18y agoI agree with you there. 100%. All public OpenID providers should be using valid SSL certificates. For some reason that is terribly, terribly wrong, some providers don't (like https://alwaysknownas.com https://alwaysknownas.com, https://openid4u.net https://openid4u.net and https://openid.es https://openid.es).
- kajecounterhack 18y agoSo every time a person wants to use it, they simply buy their own domain, install drupal with the openid module and say "yay" ???? Sure, easy.
- christefano 18y agoWhat part of my post said that's what other people should do? I explained what I did, which was finding a simple and creative way to solve a problem I was having. It probably took less time than it took Tedd Ziuba to write his post.
