    Not feeling great about the opening saying keys are necessarily locked to a single device. If that was true, they wouldn’t be in active use.

      Yep. I use them because my password manager handles cross device passkeys. If I had to set passkeys up on every single device I use, per device per web service, I don’t think I’d bother with them…

      He does caveat that statement around 10 minutes into the video. But I still think it can be a useful technology even if it’s not portable since it can ease a typical sign in flow. I don’t think as this stage it’ll fully replace passwords.
