Oh no! Now I will definitely let you have the last word.
Even Sisyphus wouldn't attempt to convince a HN crowd that not everything in the world is a big tech conspiracy...
Oh no!
I said "more interop" is coming.. There is a significant amount of interop that already exists, that folks are looking past or just already taken for granted (which is actually fine too!). While on a Windows machine…
Thanks for your faith. I work on the team shipping passkeys at Google. We are very much hard at work to realize the full potential of passkeys. Platform lockin serves no one. That is no one's intent - independent…
You can read more about the security properties of passkeys on your Google account on this post from earlier this year when support was originally announced:…

You're spot on. And I work on the Google authentication team right now :)
Think of it as using iCloud as your password manager and storing your OTPs - someone breaks into your iCloud, they get access to all the passwords and OTPs to login to any service in iCloud. Always take the security of…
