What would you use instead of an email address to identify a user upon registration? An email address is something most people have and its a workflow people are familiar with.
- hitpointdrew 4y agoI think the point is NOT to identify users, but only to not have spam/bots. Unless it’s a paid service, users should not have to identify themselves. You can keep out bots with CAPTCHA.
- i_see_things 4y agoUsers should not have to identify themselves regardless of the service being paid or free. Because stopping spam and bots is possible without requiring the user to provide an email or a phone number. Nobody cares about anything.
- mattl 4y agoHow do you propose password resets work without an email address or phone number?
- numtel 4y agoCould use Sign In With Ethereum using a social recovery wallet but I don't think all the pieces are ready yet.
- hitpointdrew 4y agoHow do you purpose Netflix, Salseforce, etc. charge their clients if they don’t even know who their clients are? Please don’t say crypto.
