so they provide tools to indentity resellers. the folk their software
enables are still *reselling* MY identity.
my point is that it is MY identity. there are tools, such as 1password,
which enable me to control MY identity and yet have the effect of single
sign-on.
and i believe it is important that mom and pop retain control of their
identities.
