Here's KeePassXC being threatened with blacklisting over granting users control over their own data: https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/10407#iss... Here's the most readable reference to playing favorites on passkey vaults I could find from the FIDO Alliance (the previously mentioned 'cabal of evil'). See Section 2.2: "Validating FIDO UAF authenticator attestations against the configured authenticator metadata to ensure only trusted authenticators are registered for use. " And Section 2.3: "Verify attestation assertions made by the FIDO UAF Authenticators to ensure the authenticator is authentic and trusted. Verification occurs using the attestation public key certificates distributed via authenticator metadata. " https://fidoalliance.org/specs/fido-uaf-v1.2-ps-20201020/fid... Basically, Relying Parties (the sites you are logging in to) are expected to allow/disallow certain passkey authenticators (the devices or software that hold your passkeys), based on registration and trusted lists. The FIDO Alliance can use entry into those trusted lists as a cudgel to force compliance with the standard. Effectively, the standard is that users must be locked into to proprietary ecosystems, unable to escape. | ||
