Proposal to make cell phone carriers trusted identity intermediaries
http://j.mp/jGlc6h (Google Docs)
This "PowerPoint" presentation by Google's Eric Sachs proposes enlisting
cell phone carriers to act as trusted identity intermediaries for NSTIC
(or similar systems, I assume), to link login data to "real world
identities.
Without right now getting into the specific additional issues that
this model implies, I will note that all of my previous NSTIC concerns
apply to this particular paradigm as well:
