• Big Tech has implemented passkeys in a way that locks users into their platforms rather than providing universal security
  • Passkeys were developed to replace passwords for better account security, but their rollout by Apple and Google has limited their potential
  • Proton Pass offers passkeys that are universal, easy to use, and available to everyone for improved online security and privacy.

    It seems no matter what new advancements we make in technology the big tech companies seek nothing more to implement it in a way that benefits themselves. Regardless if it means fucking over the consumer.

    I really hate what the internet has become over the last couple of years.

      That’s capitalism for you. They’re not interested in making things better, they’re interested in making more profit.

          On the contrary, companies making a profit by making things better for you as a concept is pretty close to extinct. See corporations realized they don’t have to make better products if they just box out the competition so that you no longer have a choice. Theres even a term for it now, because practically every company across every industry is doing it, enshittification. Charging more for inferior projects is the new goal.

          A company that grows itself by making a better product is an objective rarity in the modern world.
