> I'm curious how Apple Passkeys

Wait... Passkeys are from the FIDO alliance and both Google, Apple and Microsoft have pledged to implement passkeys for auth no?

I don't think it's "Apple passkeys" any more than they're "Google passkeys" or "Microsoft passkeys".

Which is why it's so scary... It's going to steamroll all other kind of auth with these three juggernauts behind it.

Apple got first mover advantage on marketing Passkeys under that name, so a lot of consumers are going to call it an Apple thing just by Apple getting that jump on describing it to consumers.
