There are plenty of applications that don't actually care about the additional data they could arguably get from a Google/Facebook login, and only offer it because one click sign-up/login drives more signups.
- nwsm 7y agoIn cases of a trustworthy third party, what is the concern of linking to Google/Facebook account compared to an Apple account that doesn't offer any data? I don't think I've seen any instances of Facebook integration credentials being hacked/stolen.
- the_watcher 7y agoIn reality, pretty much nothing (particularly since now, third parties basically only get name + email). The value is that some (small or large) number of potential users might not know or believe that and trust Apple more.
