@openlink @youid Wonderful!

What is this about?

User-controlled self-sovereign #identity (#SSI) that scales to both the #Internet & #Web.

@youid generates:

[1] Public & Private Credentials that can be reconciled as part of an extended #TLS handshake

[2] An #HTML-based profile doc comprising verifiable credentials -- what's also referred to as a Link In Bio doc

More to come..

@openlink @youid @atomicpoet @judell,

Also note, @youid generated profile documents also include powerful #metadata that manifest a Personal Profile #KnowledgeGraph (expressed in a variety of notations).

For instance, Public Keys belong to you (not YouID an app that simply offers a verifiable credentials generation service); meaning, that Public Key is usable by 3rd parties that what to communicate with you using encrypted content.

@openlink @youid @atomicpoet @judell What kinds of issues does this address, in regards to @Mastodon and the #Fediverse at large?

User-controlled HTML-based profile pages.

Currently, #Identity verification happens via the use of a "rel=me" entry in a cross-referenced HTML based Profile Document.

Unfortunately, most of these cross-referenced profile pages are provided by platforms offer end-user-controlled profile pages -- thereby limiting the use of this identity verification option.

How verifiable credentials generated by @youid enable self-sovereign identity (#SSI): a user-controlled approach to #identity, via #HTTPS session initialization using Client Certificate Authentication (CCA).

Adding this as an identity verification option, alongside "rel=me", enhances user #privacy and identity authenticity across the #Fediverse.
