On this show, we have Tom explain to us what oAuth is, and should we really care about it.
Pros:
<ul>
<li>Easy</li>
<li>Less accounts to track/manage</li>
</ul>
Cons:
<ul>
<li>Account linking (kinda)</li>
<li>[DEPENDING ON IMPLEMENTATION] Your login to a third-party website is controlled by your oauth provider (who you sign in with)</li>
<li>Oauth provider bans will affect more than just your primary account</li>
</ul>
