Does anyone know if Google will be an openid consumer. If not, then Google is NOT embracing openid.

Honestly I don't know much about this ...

24:57 Different personas ... but you can't be anonymous at your service provider if you're using biometric authentication or hardware ids and so forth, can you?

Could I be a service provider?

It might be hard to solve the passwort anti-pattern Problem AND the pfishing problem at the same time.

@R1e2v3oOf I can only shed a little light. Yes you can be a service provider. There are open source implementations, however, google (and most other big sites) only want to be a provider and not a consumer (allow you to use some other site as your provider), so it is almost useless right now to be your own provider.

You are right, you are not anonymous to the provider you choose.
