Sorry, no more authentication until we can get you on a quick call to talk about your needs.

I am actually astounded by the number of people on here who think this is a great product. I mean as a product it might indeed be quite good, but it also comes with the huge risk of you funneling your users into a third party company, who can then hold that as a knife to your neck (intentionally or unintentionally).

Sorry but the greatest user management experience in the world is not going to make me use this. Maybe, if there is some kind of mirroring back of all user data to some database I control, I might consider it.

But even so, I don't think it's a great idea to give away all my user info to a third company. I'm sure it's covered as necessary for functionality,but what happens if tomorrow Clerk gets bought out by Facebook and they decide the database of my users is now theirs to target for advertising? Especially when the privacy policy a actually says they will collect and share personal information with their affiliates and subsidiaries.

Nope, sorry not touching this with a 100foot pole. And I will go further and not use any company that uses this for their user management needs.
