“Passkeys,” the secure authentication mechanism built to replace passwords, are getting more portable and easier for organizations to implement thanks to new initiatives the FIDO Alliance announced on Monday.

    The real problem is not passwords so much as trusted sources. Governments should have an email account that citizens have a right to and will not go away and have local offices to verify access issues.

        well they deliver your mail. I am envisioning the same protections but also you don’t have to use it in general. but it would be how the government would send things to you.

      I don’t want my government hosting my email.

      The last time they had to do anything important they stoled all the sensitive data in plain text in an Excel spreadsheet and then the spreadsheet got corrupted so they lost everything. Of course they didn’t have backups.

        Better have your info shared with one government, rather than have it shared with every government
