A couple of years ago I set up a mail server with my domain to forward everything to gmail. I now give everyone these addresses instead of my underlying gmail one. Yes, Google can still suspend my account for any number of reasons with little to no recourse. But this way I retain the ownership of the front door. If Google does do that, I can reconfigure my server to store incoming mail or to forward it somewhere else.
Social login is more complicated. I usually set up multiple different social logins for every account to make it more redundant against this sort of thing.
- estaseuropano 5y agoWhy use social login at all when you can use email instead?
- grishka 5y agoOn services where sessions have a lifetime for some stupid reason, entering your email and password gets really boring really fast. Even more if they use a username instead of an email. Even more if they require you to change passwords periodically. Much easier to just click a button.
- sundarurfriend 5y agoPassword managers (with auto-type) are a great solution for that.
