Acct (protocol)

The acct URI scheme protocol was published by the Internet Engineers Task Force. The purpose of the scheme is to identify, rather than interact, with user accounts hosted by a service provider.^[1] This scheme differs from the DNS name which specifies the service provider.^[2]

The “acct” URI was intended to be the single URI scheme that would return information /about/ a person (or possibly a thing) that holds an account at a given domain.^[3]
