Dissenting.
OP, your first sentence is If a website offers you to sign-in using Google (or any third-party service, say Facebook, Github, etc.), don’t use that feature.
Titling this as "Third Party Auth" is a reasonable and correct summary of your article. Blaming Google specifically is hype-mongering unless you have a specific gripe against Google - and reading through your post, I don't see a Google-specific criticism.
- jkmcf 6y agoI think the title would be better if it included Facebook because those are the two most prominent and recognizable to the average person. The title for the HN audience is better, but probably equally misleading since 3rd party auth could include Auth0 or Okta, and personally, if you buy into Apple’s privacy story they should be trusted.
