Passwords are only part of the problem

Why do I need 2FA, a biometric ID or a machine generated random password to read an article on the internet?

So many sites want you to have an account, not for security reasons, but to target and track you for ads and data mining.

Any reform of the password paradigm needs and must have parallel reform of corporate and government hyper-manic tracking and surveillance of us targets.
