[cap-talk] A paper on web-keys

[Tyler Close]

One of the WWW 2008 reviewers of this paper wrote:

"Capabilities are *always* easier to implement, and the tradeoff is
*always* about giving up control."

What is the canonical paper to critique in order to rebut the "giving
up control" argument? Which paper had so much influence that people
like the reviewer believe this fiction to the point of using star
quotes?
