馃惂 Linux explores new way of authenticating developers
"Linux ID is built around decentralized identifiers (DIDs). This is a W3C鈥憇tyle mechanism for creating globally unique IDs and attaching public keys and service endpoints to them. Developers create DIDs, potentially using existing Curve25519鈥慴ased keys from today's PGP world, and publish DID documents via secure channels such as HTTPS鈥慴ased "did:web" endpoints that expose their public key infrastructure and where to send encrypted messages"
"On top of that, the project uses a decentralized messaging fabric that can be REST, DIDComm, or another trust鈥憇panning protocol. This enables participants to establish relationships and exchange credentials without revealing their physical location or network topology. Each relationship uses its own random, ephemeral DIDs, making it far harder for observers running messaging infrastructure to infer who is talking to whom or to map the kernel's social graph"
