MS Plans Changes to Passport
Microsoft (MS) is planning changes to the Passport authentication service. Specifically, the company plans to reduce the amount of information required for registering a Passport account and to move user profiles outside Passport into the Hailstorm service. MS will also include the Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) in Internet Explorer 6, which will be bundled with the Windows XP operating system.Microsoft Doesn't Satisfy Critics With Changes to Passport System, Wall Street Journal, August 10, 2001 (subscription required).
