FAQ is saying " You are automatically GDPR compliant". Explaining more can you this?

Sure! SimpleID is giving developers access to protocols that let users store their data and control their data. When you do this, you are not managing the data on behalf of the user, they are managing it themselves. That is inherently compliant.

Web 3.0 and its complex nature of on-boarding the non tech savvy ones. A tool like this is indeed needed. I just remembered I saw this once on steemhunt too, a Steem based product curation platform.

Steem is such a cool project. That's definitely high up on the priority list for us to support!

Wow. So good to hear that an this just rekindles my faith on the steem blockchain. And it will really be awesome having simpleid support steem.

If you don't mind, you could do a review campaign of simpleid on steemhunt for proper awareness to the steem community. A review that could reach over 9 million followers of various channels.

I'm one of the founders of SimpleID. As a Web3 app developer, I have first hand experience hand holding users through the complicated on-boarding process. I built Graphite, a popular dApp, using traditional Web3 auth and I just recently cracked 10K users after 2 years... The status quo today expects users to navigate pop-ups, install extensions, and of course manage their 12-word key phrase! What I've learned is that…

It looks like similar functionality to Hedgehog but with hosting as a service, and extra functions added.

Or is that off base? How would you contrast your security and functional approaches to what they're doing?

I've been using blockstack and your app, graphite, sometimes. But I've allways thought creating a Blockstack-Id is too 'nerdy' for normal friends of mine so they cannot use a whole list of good apps based on blockstack.

I hope the more apps will use your SimpleID sign-on the more non-technical friends of mine can use blockstack-based apps.

Thanks.

Thanks Jonathan for the kind words, we hope more people can start using the amazing apps being built on Ethereum, Blockstack, EOS, etc.

And a second thought since recently a lot of discussion about 2FA / two factor authentication has happened: Are there any plans to support a second factor during login process, for example a one time token?

Yes! This is one of the top things on our priority list. We will be completely removing the need for passwords and switch to one time use passwords and 2FA.

You can sign up for our slack on our website and we'll keep you updated :)

I like the convenience .. and that you can still use your account on other services that support bip39. Maybe you want to collaborate with arkane.network for payment/wallets.

Thanks Friedger, do you have a person we can talk to there? Would love to start a conversation with them!
