FIDO standard by itself is a great technology, very secure and very well-thought.
You can login to a service only if you possess a hardware token, which can't be cloned. Also, it automatically saves you from phishing sites.
But I share the fear of others that integration of this standard, curated by the top management of mega corporations, will lead to diminishing of its advantages.
FIDO keys give power to users, which is a threat to power hungry monster corporations.
- alaricus 4y agoI don't see what problem FIDO is solving. As a consumer it's not solving any of my problems. However, it is a great mechanism for vendor lock-in and for requiring Google/Apple/Microsoft approval for accessing large sections of the internet.
