OpenID in modern interpretation.

I read an article about the fact that now MySpace, being fanned by fashionable winds, joins the OpenID alliance.

You know, since Yahoo! joined him - evil is not enough! Everyone is ready to join in the form of providers - so that user information is stored with them! NONE of large companies (with the exception of LiveJournal, which by definition is Brad himself) does not accept OpenID as a means of authorization. If I’m wrong, name a few companies of the scale of at least the same Yahoo !? Separate services exist, there are stand-alone blogs, and large companies do not need it! Margin is floating away! You throw us your geeky troubles here, we need to show ads!

Therefore, under this I see only a means of propiaritsya and once again light up in the press - it is beneficial for everyone that they have a user profile so that the user can be tied to as many services as possible and God forbid he can leave! The logic is this: well, we certainly understand that a user may want some other services, but he MUST want ours! Therefore, we will give him OpenID so that he there does not let Gd not register, so that he will not be tied to other services - and, God forbid, they would not increase the user. And we will already show new ads for him - Oh! dating! do not want to rent a car? and book weekends now, this second, it burns! - also, of course, through our website or, as a last resort, through our partners, who unfasten our loot - but you have carefully selected monthly / weekly / daily offers from our friends, which will make your hair shiny and silky!

This is not Web 2.0. This is the same cesspool as everywhere else — with Smehopetrosyan and House Two, prime time and forty-minute commercial breaks. So do we want to see the Internet of the future?

PS God minus - and in the case there is something to argue? The problem personally does not seem far-fetched to me.

I apologize for PPS for the extremely irritated tone - it is simply painful, it is unpleasant to see how good and ideologically very correct ideas are used for additional squeezing "a little bit of money" from users.
