They&#39;re not going to just throw up their hands and say &#34;Welp, passkeys...I guess we&#39;re done making billions of dollars a year,.&#34;<br/><br/>I don&#39;t think so. I think they&#39;ll just engineer (socially and technically) their way around it, e.g., &#34;we have a new domain, please set up a new passkey to keep your account secure&#34; will likely work just fine. 2025-07-02T18:21:57Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsd4vz0fue0tq27mym07g9jn92l40l0chq2mr5un0he4exzq5f75sgzypvp6vcx26jyl2eysax42yg2jgulgd03x2ucaknuwvjjg9f0lthcgmka5x6 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0sgpqh9t2ap3q842v0wph560m3p307e77xpsuva6yj7qu54lhk8ck2nl8s'>nevent1q…nl8s</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Agreed. They have no idea what it&#39;s like to be poor, to not have a smartphone, to not own a computer (or to own a shared one), to not have an Internet connection at home and have to use library/community center/etc., or to be homeless or living in a shelter, or to be trying to escape a stalker/abuser, or to be working two full-time minimum wage jobs, or to be elderly, or any of the myriad things that tens of millions of people deal with every day. 2025-07-02T17:37:47Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs0gng7q67pv5e6krnmz2np476c8tcaztjqmkxjlp28angjd4ly2nszypvp6vcx26jyl2eysax42yg2jgulgd03x2ucaknuwvjjg9f0lthcgz5klmj In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvjrwsx9u9lhr3m0f5h4n75emctdhgpdf6f36cx5dlyz00qq0sews3ztx4m'>nevent1q…tx4m</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>(4) clueless corporations who send email messages with HTML/typography/graphics/links...thus training their customers that any message that looks like it&#39;s authentic IS authentic and that they should follow the links (5) increasingly-dumbed-down email UIs that conceal important information by default AND mark obviously fake messages from not-really-your-bank.xyz as &#34;authentic&#34; because they pass DKIM just as readily as real messages from really-your-bank.com. 2025-07-02T17:30:09Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsvjrwsx9u9lhr3m0f5h4n75emctdhgpdf6f36cx5dlyz00qq0sewszypvp6vcx26jyl2eysax42yg2jgulgd03x2ucaknuwvjjg9f0lthcg79fqlg In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsgqlp5xeecx53gmfxrgwa6z0de73pegt48xwedptjem9jguenegyquct773'>nevent1q…t773</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Passkeys will do little-to-nothing to stop phishing, because phishers have at their disposal (1) an essentially-infinite supply of domains in ~1000 junk gTLDs (2) an essentially infinite supply of hosting thanks to providers who do NO due diligence (3) an essentially infinite supply of email accounts thanks to large email providers who also do NO due diligence (more) 2025-07-02T17:27:46Z
