OpenID provides a better security model | GNUCITIZEN - http://www.gnucitizen.org/blog...
"However, with OpenID, all I have to do is figure out how to capture your credentials (which does not require that I compromise OpenID), and I can own everything that you own. At least with the disparate systems we have now you only get those things where I’ve been foolish enough to use the same credentials. Even then you have to figure out what those systems are. With OpenID I simply try every site that uses OpenID, trivial to do programmatically." - τorƍue
