  • This is true. However, I don't see this happening as the website/browser isn't really the problem with online banking, it's more often the user.

    On another note, how about no access at all, because this is a freaking huge attack surface for (D)DOS. Imagine you just invalidate signatures of all traffic to and from an attestation service. You could almost stop countries from functioning. That's a serious vulnerability which we can easily do without.

  • I have both my own email server and an additional paid email provider. not expensive and has very nice functionality in terms of sync, aliases, etc.

    If they now said I needed some 3rd party bullshit to access their site, I would quit paying them. There are tons of these smaller businesses.

    I doubt they will just be like "oh well, guess i'll die, Daddy Google said so"

    What i'm saying is, it doesn't have to be google OR become a tech wizard. There is a middle path that just costs a dollar.

  • Everyone talks about this like it wouldn't open a massive attack surface for the mother of DDOS.

    Make the attestor slow or take it out, you take down large parts of their business. I don't know, i wouldn't put too much stake in a platform/website that could be taken out so completely.

  • It's starting to look like a pattern. An ugly, one I might add. Slowly making everything less inclusive, less accessible.... Until it's some radical right-wing brown swamp.

    I mean, it's "only" social media platforms, but pretty much the playbook - "oh that.. that's an accidental side effect.. don't worry!" until key institutions are undermined and then switch to full on fascist regime.

    All not because of beliefs this would be best for humanity as a whole, but being in love with the idea of being the one who calls the shots. King of the hill made of feces.

    The lack of vision for an enlightened role of humanity in the universe disgusts me.

    Sorry for the rant, I might have gone from 0 to 100 pretty quick there, lol. Just pissed at a lot of these kinds of regressive developments lately.
