This week I talk with Katja Speck and Tom Keller about ID4Me. Katja is the managing director of ID4Me, and Tom Keller is a board member whose day job is Head of Domains at 1&1 Ionos. The best way to think of ID4ME is an easy way to log into the websites, similar to signing in with Facebook or Google, while maintaining control over your data. (Of course, there’s a lot more to it.) It's based on DNS, and Katja and Tom explain how it works and the benefits for the domain name ecosystem.

 

Also: Impeachment, app makers buying domains and more.
