Tell HN: My Disney account works on at least 31 domains
6abc.com, abc.com, abc11.com, abc30.com, abc7.com, abc7chicago.com, club33.com, d23.com, disney.com, disneyaccount.com, disneyaulani.com, disneygiftcard.com, disneyinstitute.com, disneymovieinsiders.com, disneyonice.com, disneyplus.com, disneyrewards.com, disneyweddings.com, espn.com, footytips.com.au, freeform.com, fxnetworks.com, go.com, hulu.com, marvel.com, nationalgeographic.com, rundisney.com, shopdisney.com, starwars.com, thewaltdisneycompany.com, tokyodisneyresort.jp
It's likely an undercount, and doesn't include the untold subdomains. (go.com alone has thousands of subdomains in CT logs.)
Wouldn't Disney be better served by using something like OIDC on a single domain? I see several downsides to their current approach. First, it's confusing to users when their saved credentials don't autofill because they created the account on a different site. Second, Disney can't use newer, more secure authentication like passkeys/WebAuthn because those are tied to a single domain. Finally, having the same credentials work on a bunch of seemingly-unconnected sites is a phisher's dream. If Disney's user base is accustomed to entering their credentials all around the web, why would they hesitate to enter it on a fake ABC affiliate site?
