A s someone who despises pw's, I'm not so sure I dislike the behavior! How would you "fix" it?
Now I use 1password, which requires a master pw to see the plain text of a pw. I suppose chrome could ask for your chrome login in order to see them while you're on that settings panel. I use 2-factor for Google/GMail so I'd be annoyed by an sms for a pin but not that bad. Note Apple's keychain has all this too, again "protected" by the users machine login. I've always felt that if you lost your laptop, you were screwed anyway .. best do a remote reset. Lets all agree logins are so '90s, and we need a far better approach. Mozilla is working on one, presumably others are too. My bank has 2-factor fob .. I wish it were a phone app, but still, folks are "moving on". -- Owen On Wed, Aug 7, 2013 at 8:13 AM, Robert Holmes <[email protected]>wrote: > … and Google say they have no intention of fixing it. > > > http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/aug/07/google-chrome-password-security-flaw > > > ============================================================ > FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv > Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College > to unsubscribe http://redfish.com/mailman/listinfo/friam_redfish.com >
