I understand it that way:
Each app that is providing "Sign in with Apple" potentially infringes the patent of Teleport/Dombox. By command of the app store rules, millions of app developers need to provide "Sign in with Apple". Hence, all those could be sued for patent infringement.
Unless, I guess, Apple settles an arrangement with Teleport/Dombox.
I'm the guy behind Dombox.
That's right. All the companies that supports "Sign in with Apple", especially on the web and android violating my work. Some of them are popular companies. e.g. Adobe, Dropbox, Airbnb, Airbnb, Medium, Spotify, WordPress, Vimeo, Meetup, Buzzfeed, Grammerly
When Apple selling my work without my permission, developers are indirectly violating my work too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_liability
I'm not following the "putting million of developers at risk". Is that because of Apple violating their patent?

All this seems like pretty straightforward oauth stuff to me. The author at some point mentioned Good giving out access to full accounts in regards to PokemonGo that iirc was a mistake and fixed.

The thread mentioned in the article is a bit weird and long-winded as well. I wasn't able to read much from either it, or the paper.
