The only authentic point I saw in this entire article was the one about the lack of documentation by Apple in implementing this across different platforms.
Everything else applies to logging in with Facebook (or can be dealt with in other ways), which the company has supported for years and is now forced to remove it because of Apple’s restrictions. Without Sign In with Apple, I doubt if they would’ve chosen to remove the Facebook login anytime soon, thus putting more users into privacy hell holes despite making statements like this:
“At AnyList, we respect your privacy.
...
When you provide us with your email address, it is never sold, shared, or used to invade your privacy.”
If the documentation had been good enough, I’m sure they would’ve implemented it and also retained Facebook login for a longer time. Seeing Facebook login being removed gives me some comfort and a sense of “all’s well that ends well”.
