So true. But most of us, especially me, are very skeptical on social logins, especially with facebook since many facebook apps are hacked everyday....so who to trust really? For payment, especially card payments:

Paypal, Moneybookers, AlertPay .....yeah, thats all

It appears that nowadays hackers are successfully targeting any website with user data. A Small Orange, a web host is among the latest and is advising user passwords and payment details may have been compromised. 

Implications
  • if you still use your email , bank, social account passwords on other websites, you are creating a major security risk for yourself
  • its high time we shunned companies that offer their own credit card implementations rather than use processors such as Paypal (not restricted to Paypal) etc. in this age, its beeter to ahve the likes of Paypal handle such stuff as they have developed the proper security mechanisms. 
  • Sites should stop insisting on telling you to create a user account and password, let them use your existing web mail accounts , social media accounts and open id as first resorts. gis avoids them keeping your passwords. 
  • how soon before someone bigger than Sony gets hit?
