OpenID is a decentralized identity system, but one that's actually
|
|
decentralized and doesn't entirely crumble if one company turns evil
|
|
or goes out of business.
|
|
|
|
An OpenID identity is just a URL. You can have multiple identities in
|
|
the same way you can have multiple URLs. All OpenID does is provide a
|
|
way to prove that you own a URL (identity).
|
|
|
|
Anybody can run their own site using OpenID, and anybody can be an
|
|
OpenID server, and they all work with each other without having to
|
|
register with or pay anybody to "get started". An owner of a URL can
|
|
pick which OpenID server to use.
