Absolutely!

My advice is to never, ever, use these links to sign in with a different company. It is a sure fire way to lose completely unrelated accounts just because ML went crazy somewhere and banned you.

(Also, on the advice front, always run your own domain for email. You need to be able to transfer it elsewhere when gmail blocks you, if you're using gmail.)

I'm not sure if this isn't a bit too paranoid approach. Using single sign on is imho fine as long as you use that account only for single sign ons. At least I haven't ever heard of anyone banned for this. Sure, it isn't ideal, but it significantly lowers overhead of managing too many identities.
