So maybe I’m too much of an optimist but I’be been thinking about Tailscale a lot recently because of how much of a game changer their product has been for us. I shudder to imagine what our VPN setup would look like at work if I hadn’t discovered Tailscale a month or two before the COVID craziness all started.

Maybe Yubikey could do to PKI what Tailscale did for VPNs: make the whole process dramatically simpler and easy to use. Still sell Yubikeys, please, but set up a funnel to capture corporate recurring revenue by solving this problem better than the alternatives.
