Ask HN: Why did ID.me (USA) remove social logins?

[Ronnie76er]

ID.me previously allowed, in addition to login via username and password, the option to log in via google or facebook. That was recently removed, and I can't find any information about why it was removed. Does anyone know why?

Downgrade attack risk. Deprecating it assures higher identity assurance for the idp consumers.
