    The biggest problem I see is that it requires OS or browser integration. While possibly a better solution than simple passwords this feels like a vendor lock-in scheme.

        Potentially the server can request hardware/software attestation that would limit the choice of password safe to approved ones only. We don’t yet know how big/likely this could be, but in theory it’s possible.

          well, if I’ve seen a vendor lockin before, and I’ve seen a couple, they’ll push them with open standards until they’re accepted and normalized.

          Then suddenly the big players like Google and Microsoft will block all the open platforms sighting “security” forcing businesses to adopt closed proprietary versions while touting their free and easy too use platforms.

          then the monitize it.
