Comment on Google will now make passkeys the default for personal accounts
alvvayson@lemmy.world 1 year agoSorry, your arguing against some strawman here.
Keep using passwords if that’s your preferred solution.
Not my beef if you can’t see how MFA is stronger than something that can be copy-pasted in a MITM attack.

Would be a lot easier to see it if you tried to actually explain your position tbh

I did.
Passkeys = open standard, more secure by design, multi-factor.
Passwords = bad track record, easily compromised.
Can’t dumb it down much more than that chief.

Password databases can have MFA too. Passkeys by default (on Google’s implementation) seem to rely on just the device pin.
That’s not really something they have over passwords lol.
I mean passkeys are so new thet don’t have a track record. So hard to compare on those merits. What do you mean easily compromised, exactly? Compared to password database model.
You clearly lack imagination. Passkey = more secure password less secure is much more dumbed down.
But I didn’t want you to dumb it down, I wanted you to expand on what you said and be more specific and technical. How are you still not getting what people’s gripe with your comments is lol

People are down voting because they have issues and I don’t have the patience to entertain them.
Fuck it, keep using passwords, don’t get vaccines and don’t drink fluoridated water.
I don’t give a shit.
