Gregory's ServerAnnouncing FedIAM 0.1.0 - Sign in with a Fediverse account!
Suppose you want to allow people to log in to your web site. How will they identify themselves? With a username and password? We've all got far too many of those already, and they're not even particularly secure. Perhaps with a Google or Facebook account? That's a lot easier, but do we really want to allow these companies even further into our lives?
FedIAM is a research project which aims to offer an alternative: using Fediverse and IndieWeb protocols, visitors can log in using any one of thousands of small, independent networks run by ordinary people - or even using a provider that they host themselves, independently of any outside influence.
Now available as open source!
