Fighting to balance identity and anonymity on the web(3)
About this episode
Shoemaker spent his childhood in Silicon Valley and learned Assembly when he was just 16 years old.
In his early 20s, he applied to work at Apple and was continually rejected. So he went to work for seven startups instead.
Finally, in 2009, Shoemaker ended up at Apple overseeing the review process for the App Store.
After seven years at Apple, Phillip became interested in cryptocurrency after discovering his personal information on the dark web.
His interest grew in the topic of self sovereign identities, which led him to become CEO and co-founder of Identity.com.
Phillip and Ben reflect on the utility of Web3 in gaming.
