Not sure what this has to do with the thread, but Touch ID is biometrics.

Oh dear. The Linux Foundation is also sponsored by Google and Facebook! Better toss that as well then, huh?This organization seems sketchy for being non profit and supported by Google, no thanks !
Everyone who has used OpenID to sign into a website put your hands up.
Everyone who has never heard of OpenID before Apple offered an alternative they could whine about put your hands up.
OpenID is irrelevant and hasn’t gotten any traction. They’re whining because Apple will have wider adoption within weeks of launch than OpenID wasn’t able to achieve in years of trying.
OpenID is not a product.
And this claim is based on what exactly? FYI, here's a list of certified OpenID providers and the implementations they use:

The highest-tier OpenID membership dues paid by companies like Google are $50,000 per year. On the other hand, Apple reportedly receives $9,000,000,000 per year from Google. Better throw your iPhone away.This organization seems sketchy for being non profit and supported by Google, no thanks !
Yes. The list only covers providers that went through the certification process.There are actually a lot more entities using OpenID than on that list. For example, Veterans Administration uses it as a login option along with other entities of the government.
Apple regularly throws developers under the bus. I don’t think that will persuade them.On the other hand, it would make every developer's life easier.
Its like the nicotine industry making psas with puppets and loud noises talking about vaping statistics.They’re worries because their biggest source of income “selling customers’” info is in jeopardy.
Google, microsoft and PayPal?!!!
It’s like pharmaceutical companies becoming members of a non profit which is concerned about cheaper medicine.
OpenID Connect is used all over the place, and the Sign in with Apple feature is based on it.
However, Apple's implementation has bugs which can cause security and interoperability issues.
Privacy and security aren't even remotely the same.You realize you're falling for their propanda by simply repeating their untrue statements.
The issues they are rattling the cage about about are minor and nowhere near the security (=privacy) disaster that it is Google, Facebook et al.
And how exactly would fixing the spec violations "undermine" Apple?It's extremely obvious that they're trying to undermine a new competitor, that - by its very design - is working against their core business model: collecting as much private data as possible and selling it.
Nope- a consortium made up of Google, MS & paypal is just mad that Apple is looking to upset the norm again. Hopefully Apple will do the 2 things they’re typically pretty good at doing:
1: NOT following the norm, & creating a new norm, &
2: doing all of it better than it had been done previously.
Apple gets accused of lock-in all the time but I can (and have) exported Messages conversations and content out of the app. How is that lock-in?
Because everybody necessarily uses what’s app for communicating outside the Apple ecosystem.
Exactly. Even Louis Rossmann thinks SIA is dope.OpenID "a non-profit organization whose members include Google, Microsoft, PayPal, and others."
Someone's in panic mode, less customer tracking huh
Link? ThanksNot at all. I've already heard several Apple developers say they're concerned about the lack of interop with OpenID.

People need to calm down. What actually happened is that the OpenID Foundation noticed 5 VERY SPECIFIC violations of the Open ID spec in Apple's brand new service. The reason that there is security risk here is because these violations present known attack vectors, some more severe than others. But understand that there is no evidence that these violations were even intentional on Apple's part. The OIDC spec is complex and would be incredibly difficult to get 100% correct immediately out of the box. What would be a problem is if Apple didn't either patch their code to address these violations or present some sort of compelling argument about how known attack vectors to these violations wouldn't affect their service. Simply not meeting the spec the first time it is tested against does not signal some sort of conspiracy.
No where did Apple say they’ve implemented OpenID but they’re treating this as spec violations.
They're pretending that spec violations are automatically security flaws.
Which is pathetic given that this is Google, Facebook, and Microsoft talking about a spec designed from the ground up to rob the user of any bit of security or privacy and track them as much as they possibly can. Apple's "violations" are closing those deliberate tracking and spying vectors.
