Even Ebay used Passport as a login option and Microsoft could control what people did on other companies' websites. They knew when and where you logged in. Together with users' cookies that's very valuable data. Passport didn't progress very much, because people did want to trust their data to Microsoft. Now people like hoberion would trust them to Google's OpenID. It would be a joke if Google could achieve what Microsoft couldn't. @hoberion

If google or any other company controls the login system for a large part of the web they can force their rules on websites and users alike without anyone being able to do anything about it. It's about what options you would like to have as an, internet, citizen not about the short term easy fix. @hoberion the whole idea behind openid is that were not dependent on a single provider.

They took the marketing and left all the nasty "open" bits it seemed. The Yahoo and Microsoft implementations are not very nice either i’m afraid.
