The more I think about this "problem" too, the more it goes back to the question of why do these sites need my information, and subsequently what way can they verify my identity? We need a better web of trust where another service can verify the identity of me as a user. Already with the likes of Chrome, much of my logins are already auto-filled meaning the browser is already happy with my identity, why can't part of this be used for signups. We have second-factor authentication, again why can't we leverage this to verify I am the real person. Between the browser, a third party service and the receiving service we can securely verify an identity without the need for passwords, email addresses and real names.
