Well, it was a sort of a temporary solution. Now we can get back to creating a permanent one...
Dmitry Here comes the OpenID spam
I fail to see how it was a temporary solution when the OpenID.org sites states that it wasn't intended to address spam problems to begin with.
The fact that it may've aided in the deflecting spam (for a while) is a side effect. Here comes the OpenID spam
I came across openID on Monday, today I've got a basic openid key provider and openid lock - and I was ever so pleased to be able to use my own generated key to open an account on a forum - and then .... oh my god ... I realised, that if I can generate a key, then any vladimere or putin, can generate a key which they can then use to unlock my openID lock and dump rotten spam on my website.
So, unless I'm very much mistaken, I'm going to have to adopt a "closed_id", lock which only opens if the brand of the key is one that is on my approved list of known reputable locksmiths.
PS. Nice comment form - and thanks to the guy(s) gal(s) that keep it going!
