Its an excellent protocol. You can certainly say no. Are you still using a Hotmail, AOL, Yahoo or an ISP email address?

Yes, I am "still using" email. What a weird question. No, I am not going to turn over control over my entire online existence to one of the worst companies on earth along with my email. Weaning off gmail is a slow painful process but been working on it. At least i'm not giving them more.
No, my question was specific. I asked, are you still using a "Hotmail," "AOL," "Yahoo" or an "ISP" email address. Sounds like you have a beef with tech. Have a good day sir.
My beef is not with "tech" but tech companies looking to increase their control over consumers. When you have a "passkey" solution that does more good for the consumer than for the company using it as a platform lock and identity tracking tool, let me know and i'll happily use it.
I am a user just like you. Again, you can choose how little or how much you use your tech. G'day.
I use the hell out of my tech. I just don't embrace things that look convenient but actually reduce options for consumers. Passkeys have promise but won't work until industry stops enshittifying it. I'm not giving up password option. How TF am I supposed to set up new machine if old one broken?
Pass keys as an option for convenience if you’re old device breaks, you need to set up a new one you simply use your password and then set up a new pass key if you choose to use it
companies like Amazon can't even figure out how to balance 2fa with device tokens and they've been working on it twenty years, and now you want me to give them and google even more control over my access to other platforms? problem isn't paskeys as such, it's passkeys as stealth sso lock-ins.
