Now, logging out of a Google site also logs you out of Chrome. > Since the sync button no longer requires a password this means someone can log in at a library to check their email, walk away, and someone else can step up, hit the sync button, and steal all of their information. If you have access to someone's email account, you can already steal quite a lot of information.
