Ben Laurie: Why Identity Is Still Just Login
‘The more I think about it, the more I realise that every situation is different. My “identity” is contextual, and different for each context. We know this from endless studies of human behaviour.

To match this to what I do in the real world, I will need a different identity for each context.’
