@WiteWulf @babe which is why i don't like it, but what's the alternative in this case? third parties gonna third party, and I'm not manually checking each of them against the partners and purposes lists from every company i do business with. it's more of a "what can i do with what i have" solution, if they at least give me that. my own threat model doesn't contain personal directed attacks.

@babe DNS *is* a form of authentication, whether we like it or not. "verizon.com" or whatever tells me that Verizon is somewhere in the chain of trust there. third parties that run from their own domains are asking us to just trust them, and with 836 partners having access to your data it's almost impossible to tell who is legit otherwise.
