Why The Web Needs Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs)—Even if Google, Apple, and Mozilla Object

November 3, 2021

At the foundation of decentralized digital identity is the concept of a Decentralized Identifier (DID), a new type of globally unique identifier that uses cryptography to prove ownership. DIDs enable individuals to control their digital data and communications in a privacy-preserving way, without requiring permission or monitoring from any other party.

DIDs are currently pending approval by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to become a new Web standard—the first new identifier the W3C would approve since the URL.

But Google, Apple, and Mozilla have filed formal objections to block the standard — which we cover and rebut in detail.
