“Login with your Address”
- Insert address
- Letter is send
- Introduce code from the letter to authenticate
Who will implement this?
My government does this actually.
Yes, and banks when you wanna activate online banking. Arguably, then it’s just for registering, and logging in then works differently.
Governments and banks love this, but I’ve even seen it with phone companies with e-sims. I quickly needed a new phone subscription, so I considered an e-sim, because I figured you could activate it by scanning the QR code from the screen. But no, they will mail me a piece of plastic with the QR code on it. So I went with a regular sim instead.
I see. Well, I think if you could just scan the code from the screen, that probably would open up all kinds of gateways for scammers. On the other hand, faking a physical address is a bit more expensive.
My government sorta did this before… *thuder crack* DIGITAL ID!
Probably Italy. All institutions and many households still have a working but unused fax line in Italy (which most photocopiers still support). Many documents can only be transferred either in person or by fax.
We are not savages, we have low cost multi-gigabit optic-fiber household connections available in the majority of cities. Our bureaucracy is just anachronistic.
Germany-Italy-Japan the Faxes-Axis remains strong.
The faxis
USA too for a lot of shit, now that we’re an axis power I guess
So many of those fax lines are just email servers in a trench coat in the US though
Can’t you just send official stuff via Posta elettronica certificata? I thought that was the point of these sorts of systems
PEC is usually not free (neither is fax, but a landline is more common than PEC). But also, I think it’s not accepted everywhere. Maybe you can also use posta raccomandata. But for that you must go to the post office in person and wait in line with other 10 pensioners, and it also costs, so you are probably better off just handing the document in person.
Ah that’s a shame, if they made it free (at least for communication with the state) i think it could clear up the fax situation a lot. They did this in my country and it got rid of the faxes
Sometimes banks give you a PEC address, but it’s mostly for communicating with the bank, and you are paying for it as part of the bank’s services.
OMG Verizon.
I JUST saw this yesterday when resetting my password.
I expect they just mail you a temporary password with 2FA turned off.
My bank, social security, email provider, and the tax office.
But only for account creation.It’s common for registration. Would be fun to have it for authentication as well. “My session expired. I need 3 days to log in again”.
Nextdoor did
Ahahah ah. Germany sends its regards.
Nextdoor does this haha
Exactly how I heard about the app. They must regularly be searching home purchases because it showed up pretty quickly after I moved in.
I’m currently waiting on two separate authentication codes in the mail so the answer is, it’s already implemented quite often.
German?
Yep
24h timeout for security.
My healthcare governmental insurance… last time I had to request a password. Took 2 good weeks. Fucking crazy inefficient process for an application that in the end exposes close to zero PII. The juicy stuff is behind another account with 2FA and more.
Token has expired. Please try again.
There’s some tax thing here where they send you the password by post.
Germans, all the time
Google does this a lot.
Login with your mom lmao
I still can’t find my dad…
Have you tried the “recover my dad” form?
There’s the option to login with caution, but what if I want to login with reckless abandon?
Choose any one of the other ones tbh.
Log in with 23andme.
To authenticate, you need an actual pin.Fucking systemd and their dna fields
Yeah DNA sample was what I was gonna suggest
Login with your mom 🤣
I’m a big fan of “Login with a potato” lol
PID -
personalPotato IDI’m digging ‘login with caution.’ I like to think it’s mostly the same generic login page but with ‘Warning: you are logging into site X. This will involve the use of your sensitive login credentials. Take precautions against their loss or theft.’ and yellow/black hazard tape borders on every div.
Login with systemd
Only if you’re 18. ;)
Yes, you did: OpenID.
I remember when I first read about it (late 2000s? not sure when), I thought it was an awesome idea and surely the web of the future would be full of “log in with OpenID” buttons.
Instead it is now full of “log in with Google”, “log in with Facebook”, “log in with Microsoft” buttons.
It is just a framework. OpenID en OIDC are probably used by those companies to federate user access.
Log in with an actual wooden log
starts bashing computer
Ah, I see you are logging in using Bash
Hahaha
Captain’s bashlog, starage 18+
Login with Calculator: For when you don’t remember your PIN but you remember how you came up with it
Creating a pin with the number pad then having to remember it with a normal keyboard… 🫠
In some languages the base layer of the number row is taken up by weird characters so people prefer the numpad to holding Shift, and laptops without one sell poorly

No, It must be an ass word, not just your ass
I recall a YouTuber who used their cats butthole for their fingerprint sensor to unlock their phone. It could be that they wanted to try it but never did, though. It’s been like a decade.
It is missing the Brazilian gov.br login.
Login with browser fingerprint
Are butthole prints supported by the same system?
I don’t have a fingerprint reader …
You don’t need a fingerprint reader to have a browser fingerprint. https://amiunique.org/
But my print reader is perfectly fine & I like using it.
FetLife obviously
