OAuth does what you want, but also does what you don't want.

This is like Android allowing apps to ask for permissions they don't "need" because, well surveillance and user data brokerage is the business model that most are info and the reason many apps are "free" or "cheap" in the first place, crowding out more honest business models.

Maybe there could be an initiative for apps and sites without predatory practices, like "apps/webs needing no personal info from you"
