Alright, devil’s advocate here - maybe this setup can prevent it. You plug something permanent, like a mouse & keyboard, into the leftmost port and leave the right two open. Then when you try the first one and it’s misaligned, move to the other port and it’s correct. No flipping of the USB connector required.
I don’t think that’s why they did it but hey…
For anyone unaware, there is a community effort to map these cameras. https://deflock.me/
I’ll take this a step further - I sit or lie on my bed all the time just to rest for a bit or chill for a bit. For me, a made bed with a blanket on top is just enough to separate the sanctuary of under the covers from the outside world.
Like I don’t want to come home after a day of riding around the metro, sitting on a park bench, and then go straight onto my sheets. It’d be akin to rubbing a thousand asses on the place I lay my head at night.
Minor distinction and largely mental, but enough to motivate me to make the bed.
This is a fundamental misunderstanding of how the FIDO2 standard works. It is not designed to be vendor specific and as other people in this thread point out, plenty of open-source secrets managers and hardware implement passkeys.
What we’ve seen is the typical Silicon Valley model of “embrace, extend, extinguish” so you’re right to be wary of any implementation by Google or Microsoft.
Same goes for biometrics - how you unlock the passkey isn’t specified in the standard. It is left up to the implementation. If you don’t want to use biometrics, you don’t have to.
