Google will now make passkeys the default for personal accounts - eviltoast

Passkey is some sort of specific unique key to a device allowing to use a pin on a device instead of the password. But which won’t work on another device.

Now I don’t know if that key can be stolen or not, or if it’s really more secure or not, as people have really unsecure pins.

    Me: ah shit

    Robbers: everyone give me your phones

    Me: aw hell naw
