Confusion in advertising: is OpenID a technical measure (providing
outsourced authentication) or a social measure (providing
cross-recognized identity)? With differences in ToS between various
sites, I see a severe distinction between "OpenID will let you share
your profile data on one service with users on another service." and
"OpenID will let you sign up for an account at sites you already
didn't want to have an account at."
