I've said this to a number of FF folks but it would be great to get FIDO U2F support in FF; the U2F-enabled yubikeys/harware tokens etc. are a great, usable 2-factor technology, but it's hard to recommend people use them when they only work in Chrome. :/ best, Joe -- Joseph Lorenzo Hall Chief Technologist Center for Democracy & Technology 1634 I ST NW STE 1100 Washington DC 20006-4011 (p) 202-407-8825 (f) 202-637-0968 j...@cdt.org PGP: https://josephhall.org/gpg-key fingerprint: 3CA2 8D7B 9F6D DBD3 4B10 1607 5F86 6987 40A9 A871 _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
