"A Reuters release notes that Yahoo Inc will stop letting consumers access its various online services, including Fantasy Sports and photo-sharing site Flickr, by signing-in with their Facebook Inc or Google Inc credentials. The move marks the latest change to Yahoo by Chief Executive Marissa Mayer, who is striving to spark fresh interest in the company's Web products and to revive its stagnant revenue.
The change, which will be rolled out gradually according to a Yahoo spokeswoman, will require users to register for a Yahoo ID in order to use any of the Internet portal's services."

I'm not a robot like you. I don't like having disks crammed into me... unless they're Oreos, and then only in the mouth.

As if Yahoo wasn't sufficiently in decline and yet they want to cut the integration with what people regularly use?
You're doing it wrong, if you want people to use your services you make your services attractive by making them compatible with already existing services, otherwise who'll want to use them?
Removing features is a good way to lose customers.
