That’s an incorrect summary – the article says (quoting an ARTM RFP) that the agency is looking to develop a system whereby users authenticate themselves via some kind of biometric ID on their own personal device. In other words, they are looking to adopt a login system for their ticket purchasing website or app that will rely on a passkey that is linked to an individual’s phone. This seems pretty normal and consistent with the direction passwords and logins are going.
OK, I was going by the lede. Thanks for the correction, Joey.
Having a suboptimal news morning here. I have to admit that whatever news site I look at, I find myself looking at Donald Trump’s face, and – for the first time – I’m feeling a real aversion to news.

I’ll get over it.

Well, with Biden finally out, maybe, just maybe, you’ll get to hear less of Trump. But I wouldn’t bet on it.
