It was a real thrill to tell y'all about passkeys in the #WWDC22 State of the Union. Together, we're really going to do this: we'll make people much, much safer online. If you missed it, check out all of SOTU! (But my part starts at 44 minutes in.) https://developer.apple.com/ ..…

I really hope PassKeys get enough adoption across platforms to have a fair shot at being the new normal for authentication.

I'm so proud of the work my team did on #passkeys this year. They're a secure, easy-to-use, cross-platform replacement for #passwords that you can use to sign in to websites and apps. Check out this video by my teammate Garrett to learn more! 🔐😎 #wwdc22 https://developer.apple.co…

It kind of annoys me to see passkeys reported as an apple invention. That really misses both the point and the reality.

Apple's new Passkeys thing sounds a lot like signing in with a crypto wallet (this is a good thing) Passwords suck, authenticating with crypto keys makes way more sense

I don't think people realise how game changing PassKeys will be. #WWDC22
