You missed the great argument last week regarding basic auth:

Pierre w/PHD: My bank uses a login page with cookies, why can't you?

[Long diatribe deleted]

Mike: I will walk to airport and fly home before I use cookies for authentication.

Pierre w/PHD: If you are so worried about security, use RSA key fobs, my bank uses those, they are secure.

Mike: Pulls up Google search for "RSA hacked"

Pierre w/PHD: Silence.


The real issue is, few understand identity or authentication. Especially when I need to be a different entity sometimes.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
