I don’t understand the problem they are trying to solve, and this article is long, so apologies if they actually get around to explaining.
I have a credit card, and an agent. I want a pizza.
These credentials do what, exactly? Prevent the pizza place from taking my money? Allow me to order anonymously so they don’t know where to deliver it?
Also, they are security professionals, so when they say anonymous, they don’t mean pseudonymous, so my agent can produce an unlimited number of identities, right? How do they keep the website from correlating time and IP addresses to link my anonymous requests to a pseudonym?
My cynical take is that the pizzeria has to pay cloudflare a few pennies to process the transaction. What am I missing?
