I travel frequently. Often outside of the US. I decided when in Mexico that I could possibly lose the tiny notepad so I took photos of my passwords on it. I did this on a Mexican phone and I have often used these photos when I couldn't remember rarely used passwords and my notepad wasn't with me. Seemed like a good idea at the time.
I also use Google photos and drive since I download a lot of photos of different beards and moustaches since this is the one thing I can change to look different (hey it's fun). Suddenly, I discovered yesterday, basically by accident, that Google, on it's own, without asking permission, just decided that it should backup folders including my photos. Now Google has all of my usernames and account numbers and passwords that are in those photos. So today, I have to change every single password and username in those photos. Which means I have to drop every single forum, app info, etc. And sign up again. NOTE WELL: I also discovered that Google is not just storing passwords in Chrome, but is also monitoring ALL my app activities, passwords AND passing (selling most likely) my profile info and reviews to companies. Their wording is deliberately obscure as to what exactly is being stored and disclosed to others. I use JuiceSSH on my Android phone. I like it. Guess what. Now I can't use it or definitely I may or am getting my usernames and passwords stolen! I also do not want my actual activities showing up. You know, like database passwords,etc. I would really appreciate any advice on how to deal with this. Not being able to use SSH on my phone is a problem. Yet I see that this is no longer an option. Google is now very clearly out of control and violating, against our will, any level of privacy and not asking permission. Yet, they also offer some very alluring services such as YouTubeTV, which I both use and like. It's basically cheap cable that's portable and has DVR also included. I'm going to start another thread right now that is probably a better place to answer this in, instead of spread over two threads. Fahrenheit 451, Chris Bennett
