I advocated open standards at Visa, and 3-D secure always rubbed me the wrong way for a) not being an open standard that could be leveraged by other parties, b) had very limited ability to be extended to work in any sort of "identity metasystem" and c) didn't really allow for the sort of innovation that openid & information cards allow. That being said, the problem with changing 3-D Secure is one of costs - there were a lot of machinations just to get 3-D adopted in the last few years - I'm not sure its realistic to expect a lot of enthusiasm for *more* investment in technology change across the online electronic payments ecosystem! (Though it would be pretty cool...) This is really cool news!!!

But I worry how everyone else might view this and how we really explain it to them. The reason I ask is this Freakanomics blog post: http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/09/11/is-openid-the-solution-to-online-identity-theft/ shows they the public just doesn't trust the model (IMO).
