RE: SteemLogin - a new and easy way to sign in to Steem!
Well, at least Google is accountable to the security of their customers data. Their business model relies in large part to the trust of their customers.
Would you trust me better for storing your details on my own server?
Do you think your Steem details are safer on a Steem node managed by an individual?

You and I most likely come from very different philosophical perspectives @irelandscape, if you believe this …
… as I do not. If the American government can’t hold Google accountable, I personally have no thought you or I or anyone else will … I personally want to be free of these “global giants,” e.g. Google, Facebook, etc., as much as I can manage. Which is a significant part of why I elected to invest in this new asset class and its “decentralized blockchains” in the first place.
That said, rest assured I am almost certainly in the minority in this view. Most of our fellow countrymen will likely not give any of this a second thought … For what it is worth, on that basis I have featured SteemLogin in the 👍 section of my monthly update …
I feel for those with small accounts that want access to the dApps this is a great solution. Not sure an account with a real upvote should risk their reputation of having their keys stored anywhere. But as the masses that will come will mainly be free accounts with very limited SP this is a great gateway to the crypto world IMO.
