Yes, you can filter by email address or email domain. It's one of the things we get for free by using WordPress Social Login.

Hi HN,
We received a number of requests from (ex-)Clef users asking if we would perhaps build an authentication plug-in for WordPress, now that Clef is sunsetting.
This is our first version: We opted to use a proven extension as a base, and collect feedback. Then use that to develop a stand-alone plug-in in the future.
Tell us what you think!

There are probably several angles on this. One is to let our Authentiq ID mobile app support and sign in to SecureLogin sites. Another to let websites that use Authentiq automatically support sign-ins with SecureLogin. These look feasible at first sight.
A third, replacing our current auth flow with SecureLogin indeed isn't likely to work for reasons you mention.

Yes! As a site admin in today's world, you should indeed not want to store passwords. Or even personal data for that matter.
I applaud this initiative since it lists exactly the reasons why we started Authentiq: Decentralization, usability, privacy, safety for end users (which is very different from merely offering security features that most people don't use).
Authentiq is similar in goals and architecture, yet with a more comprehensive feature set, since we aim to support existing standards (like OIDC) as the integration point for developers, and offer a more complete mobile identity to end users so that the site owner doesn't need to store those details either.
That said, I'm very keen to see if we can add support for the OP's authentication protocol soon. Check us out here if interested: https://www.authentiq.com/

Or any server side store, maybe DynamoDB.

You probably mean €500 thousand, not million.

This is indeed a typical configuration for authoritative name servers.

"Passwords might be useful for someone who works on a public computer at the library."
Key loggers anyone?

You guys are right of course; I was looking at the C version.

For one the fact that (the author of NaCL) Daniel Bernstein is backing it.
