She Should Have Asked The Devs First

Tech journalist writes a whole article about privacy concerns with Google Sign-In, warning people not to "put all their eggs in one basket." Meanwhile, the website she's writing for literally has a big fat "Sign up with Google" button staring everyone in the face. The irony is chef's kiss level. Someone in editorial approved an article about avoiding Google authentication while their own dev team implemented OAuth with Google as probably the primary sign-up method. It's like writing "10 Reasons to Quit Coffee" for a Starbucks blog. Pretty sure the devs are somewhere laughing at the Slack notification about this article going live, knowing full well they just merged a PR last week to make the Google sign-in button even bigger.
