I think it depends on your threat model. For my personal accounts, I'm more concerned about the risk from badly-managed auth than law enforcement. So from that standpoint, using an established big tech company makes sense. Other people may place different weights on various threats.

Then we are at passwords again where I can happily exclude both. Convenience might be an advantage, but I don't see me using such an auth solution for my private accounts.
I lean this way...I know policeman bad and government bad, but 99% of us will pass away and only our family and friends will remember we existed.
