Mozilla Persona is a decentralized login system that allows users to log into websites using their email address rather than separate usernames and passwords for each site. It works by having a user's browser prove ownership of their email address to a website through a cryptographic signature, avoiding the need to reuse or remember passwords. The document discusses the problems with traditional password-based systems, how Persona addresses these issues through its decentralized design, and provides information for website operators to integrate Persona login on their domains.
