A bit about OAuth adoption in scenarios beyond its original scope (e.g. Open Banking).

With OAuth, an end user (resource owner) can grant a printing service (client) access to their protected photos stored at a photo- sharing service (resource server), without sharing their username and password with the printing service. Instead, they authenticate directly with a server trusted by the photo-sharing service (authorization server), which issues the printing service delegation- specific credentials (access token).
