nsane.forums Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 With no practical alternative, a small tech group has launched a campaign to rally consumers against the use of passwords for logging into websites and services. The Petition Against Passwords, launched earlier this month, is the brainchild of think-tank TechFreedom and rivals Clef and LaunchKey, which sell password-less technology. The group quickly gathered several hundred signees. The idea is to put aside the technology debate in finding a password replacement and use the power of the people against the widely used method for logging into websites. "If we can combine all the voices of the people who in the past have been silent about their issues with passwords and bring them together and be like, 'Hey, this is an issue that we need to be talking about,' then as a group, we can enact a lot more change than we would be able to individually," said Jesse Pollak, co-founder of startup Clef.
