FIDO does some dirty things:

>FIDO requires an attestation private key, which must be shared between a batch of at least 100,000 security keys. Using a DIY or cli app solution (application running on the host) will likely mean you'll be generating that private key yourself, this makes you identifiable across registrations.

>Some sites (Cloudflare) may reject the use of attestation keys which are not found on the Fido Alliance Metadata Service. This precludes the use of any DIY solution.
