This is context scramble. Why would anyone think they'd be logged out of Facebook because they logged out of a site that uses Facebook auth? That'd be like expecting you to have to unlock your front door again because you locked your car.

- relix 13y agoBecause else logging out is meaningless - just pressing the "connect with facebook" button again would instantly the user back in, without asking for confirmation or a password. Hardly secure.
- rapala 13y ago> Why would anyone think they'd be logged out of Facebook because they logged out of a site that uses Facebook auth? Because logging in was associated with Facebook, the log out got associated as well? As you said, context scramble. I think this was the point of the author; it's a bit too easy to mix up logging in and logging in with.
