Google+ Sign-In is an implementation of OpenID Connect, with some nice features built on top:
"Google+ Sign-In is built on the OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect protocols. It supports over-the-air installs, social features, and a sign-in widget on top of standardized OpenID Connect sign-in flows. Google+ Sign-In works for all users with a Google account, whether or not they have upgraded to Google+." [0]
I don't understand where all your other conclusions came from.

- dvorak42 12y agoWhere does it talk only about Google+ Sign-in as the migration from OpenID 2.0? On the same page, they list how to migrate to OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect, and even say "If your OpenID 2.0–based app does not need social features or is on a platform not supported by Google+ Sign-In, or if you want to work directly with the OAuth 2.0 REST APIs, then we recommend migrating to Google's OAuth 2.0 login (OpenID Connect) solution, as described below."
- timothya 12y ago> BTW: Maybe you should also read my full post, before answering. Heh, I see that you edited it to add more since I originally pressed "Reply". You imply Google is "evil" because they write "only about Google+ SignIn", but I'm not seeing that. The link that you provided has two sections, migrating to Google+ SignIn if you are already using a Sign In with Google button, and a section on how to migrate to just basic OpenID Connect. It doesn't seem hidden away like you are implying.
