• Big Tech has implemented passkeys in a way that locks users into their platforms rather than providing universal security
  • Passkeys were developed to replace passwords for better account security, but their rollout by Apple and Google has limited their potential
  • Proton Pass offers passkeys that are universal, easy to use, and available to everyone for improved online security and privacy.

    The takeaway is Passkeys are great technology but as implemented by Google, Microsoft, and Apple fall short of what they could be.

    then get them implemented by someone else useably. that open authentication login garbage they pushed years ago was also supposed to be an open standard, but you can only use it if you lock yourself in to facebook/google to this day. i still have to use a different password for each damn website still.

    id like to see its opennes at work in the real world, in practice, first.
