Cries in all my favorite niche subs being ghost towns here… but it’s ok, general subs got it going on alright :-)

Nice, thank you very much!

Transition in case it matters? Nice meme:-)

Thank you for that info, very helpful.

Fun fact: he’s powered by syphilis - keeps him crazy but it keeps him going.

I guess I mean if people are too used to critical services opening up without any friction, a pause to complete some sign in step, they’ll stop taking a moment to look for any warning signs, so they might miss the fact that they’re at a spoofed url, for example. Yes you’re right that the passkey wouldn’t be working at this fake site, but it could still take them out and harvest some data, interactions or credentials.

Tell them the NIST recommendations for password frequency changes have been really reduced in recent times because it pushes people into other bad password practices. Among all factors, changing the password frequently is the least important.

But I also worry about new areas of weakness with passkeys - anyone accessing the device with the passkey on it, or hacked that device, gets access automatically to the accounts. Also if logins are too fluid I worry that anything out of the ordinary during sign ins won’t be noticed.

I agree, it annoys me too.

Well that sucks, I use it a lot but I will not use Teams.

Chinese gotta use state-approved and controlled mainstream apps and media, or access foreign stuff via VPN. Homegrown, off the grid stuff like Lemmy only gets by as long as it’s obscure.

If it’s big enough and ornery (includes political content, rather than say just all cooking recipes and form) it’s liable to be blocked.
