Why Federate? ➹

Tim’s clearly got an uphill struggle ahead of him here - I side with most of the comments.

Federated auth needs to be provided by someone whose primary business model does not rely in monetizing eyeballs, and right now the only real business on the Internet at large is monetizing eyeballs in one way or another. Facebook, Google and Twitter have lost pretty much any credibility they might have had in this regard, even among normal folk.
