So... directly connect to the other host, whilst apparently not revealing the relationship between the two of you?

Posts like this (from the link at the bottom of the page) are also not promising:

I find it weird that a company providing a security/privacy tool isn't even using https on the website and providing a checksum for the binary.

People keep telling me that research I'm doing with some friends overlaps with what these people are proposing, so I've spent a little time trying to figure out what they do and how they do it from their website. I haven't yet played with their client or anything like that.

I really can't see any substance here. The name is also sort of darkly humorous: they've clearly poured a lot of effort into (at least marketing) what they're doing, but have yet to realize that they're just tilting at windmills.

The OP's username pretty much reflects my reaction to this website.

Here's a question asking for a white paper: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=979.0

It links to a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pZaTdEtK-8

There's a lot of hand waving.

Not to mention that I wasn't aware Amazon, eBay, FedEx, et al accepted Bitcoin and integrated with the Keyhotee network...

Looks like a very promising concept, at least from a technical perspective. I don't rate its chances of success all that highly, since it needs a lot of buy-in before it gets enough network effects, but it's nice to see someone genuinely trying to find workable solutions to what we can no longer deny are serious privacy and security problems with the current setup.

Something I'm not clear on is the licencing of the code. Is it open-source? For trust reasons I'd want to be able to read it.

Windows download page not found http://www.invictus.dev/bin/keyhotee_0.5.0.zip

edit: OK, some of the download links are broken. This one works: http://invictus.io/bin/keyhotee_0.5.0.zip

Finally! I have always wanted to connect all my social media accounts to one freaking server, which is 100% hacker-proof ! How are they doing this? Probably some IT-ish complicated encryption algorithm! (Just like the Titanic) Isn't this a cliche?

Looks like the source is here: https://github.com/InvictusInnovations/keyhotee

Windows only -- really? It's 2013. If you're trying to get traction with a highly technical identity platform, windows probably shouldn't be your top pick.

I'll never figure out how it is possible that periodically, someone tries to convince us that putting all the eggs in the same basket has become a good idea.

So I will connect to Facebook without a password and that will prevent ID thieves to impersonate me?

The download button says Windows, but the screenshot has a distinctive Aqua (OS X) look.

Shouldn't it be Keehotay?
