Manage episode 457646090 series 3152511
In this episode, we demystify the 'Log in with Google' and 'Sign in with Apple' buttons by exploring OAuth, the technology that powers them.
We discuss how OAuth acts like a digital key card, enhancing both convenience and security by allowing limited access without sharing your passwords. We then delve into the concept of decentralized identity, explaining how it gives users more control over their data.
Learn how platforms like ArcBlock are blending OAuth with decentralized applications (DApps) to create a user-centric digital experience. We also explore the potential impact of decentralized identity on personal security, healthcare, business efficiency, and data privacy. Tune in for an insightful conversation about the technologies that are reshaping our digital world.
