From Rick:

Some privacy compromise is an expected part of doing business, e. g. fraud analysis by credit card companies. In Identity parlance, the IDP (or Attribute Provider - AP) needs to know the RP, not just the user.

NSTIC - motivation is fundamentally that there is a public good.

FIPPS could be that public good.

Things that government can do:

  • put money into it (analagous to building roads)
  • begin to define regulartions in ways that help people understand
  • Incentivize the desired behavior, e. g. define procurement regulations for suppliers


Proposal: Some modification to the trust framework could enable private sector IDPs to make money. (See credit card thing above)
