In the near future, where we really do have our personal data in our personal repos and grant access via transaction to folks who need/want to interact with us for authentication, attestation or tailoring content/ads/offers/etc., ....in that world, who is to say that I want organization X to interact with me in the same way as organization Y? Who is to say that I'm the same person all the time? Sure, there are core attestations that should always be "me" (and there ought to be a world-wide effort to create systems that help ensure that when I (or a company) claim I'm "me" that I'm not just "me" but the only "me" there is. But above this -- and this reminds me of the way ENS works...sorta -- I'm thinking that there ought to be a variety of personae. Maybe I want my home systems to treat me one way, but my work systems should tune themselves in another way. Maybe I have a side-jam as a musician, and while I'd actually appreciate Facebook sending me stuff about guitars and other gear, I don't want LinkedIn or Alexa keying off that segment of my personal data and making inferences.
And of course, I want different login/oauth based on different personae.
