@vruz what I mean is, medical records on a central server, available to all healing practices, creates a massive surface area for data leaks
-
#Hubzilla doesn't deal with user persistence better than any other federated app. Hubzilla. site is gone, and so is everything I did there
-
Identity redundancy across federations needs to be addressed, and doing so would also deal with portable identity.
-
Secure, private, portable identity is an unsolved problem for much more important applications than social chat too, like medical records
-
@vruz I agree there's no need for all digital activity to be tied to one portable identity. Each person can have different ones, like now
-
@vruz but I do want every healer who treats me to be able to access my full medical record, and add their own notes, without leaking my data
-
@vruz but I do *not* want to have those medical records attached to a FarceBook, Google, or even GNU Social identity ;P
-
@strypey @vruz "Or as I have taken to calling it lately, GNU+identity"
-
@strypey Did you had a clone of your account (nomadic identity)?
-
@maiyannah @vruz but it would be good for some use cases for my GNU+Identity to be portable across Diaspora*, Hubzilla etc
-
@tobias I guess not. For future reference, how do I do that?
-
@strypey I'm on the road so don't have a link at hand. But you create a new account on a different Hubzilla node. Instead of creating a new channel you either import previously exported channel data in the cloning step, or you give the new node the credentials to login to the old node and the cloning starts then in the browser.
After the channel is cloned, you elect one to be the primary clone (afaik for federation to other platforms) and the clones sre ready to use. Yor nomadic identity can consist of more then these two clones.
-
@tobias ok, so maybe PEBCAK on my part *blush*. To be fair though, this wasn't made clear when I set up my account
-
@tobias automated cloning onto a couple of other instances (email details to new user) could be one way to improve #Hubzilla #UX
-
@vruz even more so if access to my records is tied to someone (hopefully me) authenticating with some kind of "RealMe" digital state ID
-
@vruz but posting medical records from practice to practice is ridiculously inefficient, potentially resulting in death by lack of key info
-
@vruz so digitizing medical records is probably worth the risk but the people doing it mostly aren't even *thinking* about infosec *shudder*
