    money corrupts

    This is exactly the reason that Proton became a non-profit:

    https://proton.me/blog/proton-non-profit-foundation

    Swiss foundations and their board of trustees are legally obligated to act in accordance with the purpose for which they were established, which, in this case, is to defend Proton’s original mission. As the largest voting shareholder of Proton, no change of control can occur without the consent of the foundation, allowing it to block hostile takeovers of Proton, thereby ensuring permanent adherence to the mission.





  • edit: I think I’ve misunderstood the point of the article. He is saying passkeys are dangerous for people without password managers, therefore for most people passwords are still better (since most people don’t use password managers). It’s not so much a problem with passkeys, but the lack of password managers.


    Even in the best case scenario, where you’re using an iPhone and a Mac that are synced with Keychain Access via iCloud

    Surely the better-case scenario would be using a password manager?

    The article doesn’t address the recommended use-case of passkeys + password manager, which makes it kind of irrelevant.
