> I have never seen a major auth provider compromised

Linkedin, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_LinkedIn_hack

Or if we don't limit it to just data breaches but include compromises that would have allowed a full account takeover of any account using this identity provider in a third party app:

Also it's strange for a minor auth provider to promote "major auth provider". Seems that would drive away potential customers.
