Is there any reason to have this feature enabled for millions of desktop users vs enable by appropriately paranoid corporate IT departments?
- Elhana 7mo agoMillions of desktop users would use empty password if they could.
- mikkupikku 7mo agoMost of them would be well enough served by that too. It used to be normal and perfectly suitable for most home users.
- eviks 7mo agoThe reason is to protect the innocent, of course, they're mostly clueless about security! But I don't know the level of practical benefits for this measure, superficially seems to be rather low, but then (assuming silly usability issues like "appears frozen" are fixed) what's the downside?
