11-13, 17:40–17:50 (Asia/Bangkok), Stage 4
For years our community is using cryptography and privacy-enhancing technologies trying to build solutions that will bring people control over their digital identities. How far have we got?
This talk would like to expose a gap that exists between our Cypherpunk approach to SSI and what a real world project needs / wants / can do.
If we want our SSI solutions to bring control over their digital identities back to people, it seems we need to take a different approach.
