- arethuza 16y agoI checked with Fiddler and it's client side only - no outgoing traffic back to a server! Still, I don't think this is a great idea. You could harvest a lot of passwords with a page like this.
- nodata 16y agoBut it doesn't matter if it's client side only: * It might not be in future * It's not using SSL, so anybody in between can make it stop being client side only whenever they like * It's a terrible, terrible idea to teach users to trust things like this.
