alt Hacker NewsDo you remember when people had to "remember" a password for every service they use? It is better to use a trusted third party. Sure these third parties are big corporations, but its safer for most people to have a login that just works, even at the cost of some privacy.
People trying to remember passwords is a pretty bad security situation.
I'm not an expert but so often folks on here throw criticisms without giving credit to some of the merits of solutions. Nothing is perfect, and progress can still be made. :)

Respectfully, I disagree in a time when all your data is being slurped up and resold constantly I hate any additional costs to my privacy.

But that's their problem, not mine. I'm an adult and I use a password manager.
A password manager can both take care of remembering unique passwords and allow privacy options
