Federated use of the DID wallet ANYWHERE similar to google, facebook, OAuth2 #3

Open 9rb opened 4 years ago

What do we have to do such that it can be used by any other application similar to how google, facebook and similar ids are used to authenticate into various sites and apps that are not controlled by google, facebook etc.

Please clarify this issue. If it's about (b) change the title to "federated use a l a google, facebook, OAuth2".

(a) makes no sense. There's no way to prevent any dApp on RChain from using this wallet.

And please let's not use this issues list for brainstorming on digital identity in general. Let's stick to the scope of this project. I would much prefer that you close this issue, since it is, as, you say, out of the current scope.

from The Dweb Protocols Behind Space - Fleek Blog Published 2 Dec 2020:

Torus is an open source, decentralized key management system that provides for non-custodial key management, abstracted and applied to the sign-in experiences that users enjoy today, such as social sign-ins, and OAuth.

In a way, it allows the best of both worlds when it comes to authentication methods, since it facilitates Web 2.0 notions like account recovery tools and one-click logins across devices, in a Web 3.0 context where account authentication is key-pair based.
