Title: What is The First Person Network?

Channels

Description

How can we prove we're real people online without surrendering our biometrics? Join us for a conversation with Drummond Reed, co-organizer of the First Person Project, on building privacy-preserving, trust-based proof of personhood at Internet scale. We'll explore the new governance framework from Ayra and why interoperable, individual-first credentials could transform digital identity.

Homework

Takeaways

  • ⚡ A person should not have to give up a correlatable identifier to transact--giving up my Aadhaar number is oversharing for most transactions. And PII is toxic waste for the RP unless they absolutely need it.

  • ⚡ Sam Altman backed Worldcom is using biometric hashes as the base for its personhood credential. The First Person Network thinks this is a bad design decision.

  • ⚡ The idea is to have multiple issuers of First Person Network credentials, and then to establish some kind of trust network so they can validate each other's tokens.

  • ⚡ In the spirit of VRM, the First Person Network not only envisions person credentials, but also person relationship credentials. These relationship tokens could be factored into authorization decisions.

  • ⚡ It sounds like the First Person Network wants to stay credential format neutral? One day there could be a JWT version?
