Of course that's an important difference, though most still don't trust Facebook with that information either.

- gregcohn 13y agoNor should they! But I don't think that's an argument against this auth product, which only works if a user has an active facebook account (ie has trusted facebook with data) to begin with. It's another developer option, one flavor among many, that developers can use to make it easier for users to log in. Given the reality that most people actually do use facebook, I think it's kind of interesting.
- loceng 13y agoDidn't everyone trust Facebook to begin with. That's how the world works. You have to trust people to begin trusting them (or an organization) - else you're going to be paranoid of the world and become sick. Facebook has violated that trust multiple times.
- gregcohn 13y agoWe are in agreement re facebook violating user trust in a variety of ways. The Anonymous Authentication product is more about what goes to 3rd party developers though.
