New website names and shames companies that still don’t offer passkeys to users

Scott Helme, the longtime security researcher who created the website whynopasskeys.com, wrote in a blog post that the motivation behind the site is to push companies to enable passkeys and give users the chance to adopt them. “A list is a surprisingly effective motivator. Nobody wants to be on the list,” wrote Helme.

Major companies such as Apple, Google, and Microsoft are on the good side of the list and do offer passkeys to users. 

It’s important to note that users can turn on passkeys on Instagram, but only if their account is tied to a Facebook account with a passkey enabled.

Meta did not immediately respond to TechCrunch’s request for comment as to why some of its products, like Facebook and WhatsApp, offer passkeys, but Instagram does not. TechCrunch also reached out to Netflix and Spotify. This article will be updated if any of these companies provide a comment.
