Third party sign in might not be ideal, but having to register for every crappy service and website is much much worse.
And flickr or tumblr have quite a bit more users than you've guessed.
- blueskin_ 13y agoThat's why people have KeePass, or even LastPass if they are overly trusting of third parties. Having a different password for every service is more secure than one for everything.
- rplnt 13y agoI'm not talking (just) about security. It's about convenience. It's annoying to go through million variations of registrations instead of approving the site with one click.
