SSO for the whole web means if you do something deemed "bad" you can be blacklisted from every service at the same time. How is this good?
- hemloc_io 5y agoSure, but that's effectively that happens already with our centralized gatekeepers. See what happened to Alex Jones, regardless of if you think it was justified or not. With a crypto wallet, you don't have to start from scratch with a new account on a service that doesn't ban you because you own that data, in theory you could even port your social graph over. I don't think this is inherent to crypto, but it is inherent to decentrazlied open standards like Mastedon for example. The advantage that crypto "wallets" have here is that it's not just for social media, it can be for payments etc.
