"Sign in with Google"
I no longer (and haven't for quite some time) recommend "Sign in with
Google" on other sites. The reason is obvious. When you get locked out
of access to your Google account due to the horrible state of their
account recovery systems, you can lose access to all those other sites
where you used Sign in with Google as well. Unless you're a particular
kind of masochist, not worth the risk. -L
