I don’t suppose you happened to notice that every single comment on this post so far is Spam!
Did I miss it? I didn’t see any reference to Janrain Social Login (formerly Janrain Engage) (https://wordpress.org/plugins/rpx/). This was, I believe, one of the very first plugins of this nature. I’ve used it since about 2009.
I did notice – removed them, I think Akismet is having an off day :)
Thanks for the recommendation.
