Sorry, I meant the security of relying on the services in general, not of exposing that someone has an account with you. Obviously, that's a serious security consideration, and each service should weigh the costs and the benefits.

In this case, it seems like they are already exposing it with the account checker, so making this change didn't open up any new vulnerabilities.
