Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

My name is Bastian and I started humanID or the Foundation for a Human Internet. HumanID is a nonprofit organization that is driven by open-source developers and volunteers. And over the last few years has built an anonymous online and anonymous Single Sign-On (SSO) as an alternative to invasive tools such as the login with Facebook or the login with Google. We started this organization with the help of Harvard Business School and Mozilla and have since then expanded this to hundreds of users across various sites, such as social media sites, whistleblowing services, and other products that respect the privacy of their users and want to block spam and automated accounts.

Since we are a nonprofit, we are not making any profits, but we are charging a small amount to cover the cost of running the service. It's around 1 cent per user. We're trying to keep this as small as possible since obviously, revenue is not our main goal.
