The 6 digit number is TOTP, it's an RFC and has nothing to do with webauthn. Webauthn is basically what you are asking for (thumbprint). It's basically Apple's TouchID brought across platforms and across the Web.

My biggest problem with webauthn, it REQUIRES javascript. I know it's 2022 and everyone just throws the JS security issues under the rug and pretends that running JS for security is 100% totally awesome. Yes you can mitigate the securi

I agree with everything but the "controlling open source" bit. I think what they are actually doing is trying to create new platforms they can control, because that's a great business model. Open source, via Github is just a

Not really, I mean worst case he has to pay Twitter 1B?. Which to us seems ridiculous, but for him it's like $1,000 might be to many of us, we would notice it, but it would likely not financially ruin us.

You are right, in an individual case like that, it's hard to make it a class action, but I'm sure there are plenty of cases where they get some bad data from some vendor, and then promptly update 100k accounts with this bad data.

Right, for internal networks, we use source IP(well network, but same diff). For instance, we might have diff. source networks based on their department or building or whatever. We can then give them DNS information based on where they are

I agree, enforcement matters. My opinion: In the last 50+ years, it's been a very bad bet to be against the USA. They generally get whatever they want. If that's right or not, is certainly debatable.
