It's not immediately clear what DIDs are, what problems they're solving (and what value they're providing to the ecosystem), why they're better than other options in the same space, and how they'll function and scale years into the future. That's a legitimate cause for skepticism.
That the objections brought on by the two largest browser vendors are dismissed entirely, without further addressing the concerns stated, is unsettling.
- dhzhzjsbevs 4y agoIs that what that rambling was about after the two statements from Google/Moz? I thought it was just someone crying about how the big browsers just didnt understand their brilliance. Overruling them just makes you look stupid. They won't implement it. W3C pulls this bullshit all the time. Fighting for relevance.
