[OpenID] EU regulators call for tighter privacy provisions on OpenID, Facebook

[Andrew Arnott]

The article mostly talked about social networking.  It mentioned FaceBook
and Microsoft LiveID, neither of which have anything to do with OpenID or
OAuth.  I wonder if they just stuck those two terms in there, unjustified,
because it sounded like it fit?

I can see the privacy concerns with the social networking... and it seems to
have nothing to do with either of these protocols.
