Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/71.0.3578.80 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Remove Auto-Save Passwords Feature To Gmail By Which Passwords are Saved Into Gmail Account. 2. Make a security question to check saved passwords in chrome 3. Exchange Auto-Save Passwords Feature To Gmail Feature ie Restrain this feature only to chrome app and don't save passwords to computer hard drive but into your server so no-one can get saved passwords without a security question. What is the expected behavior? I want GOOGLE to remove feature by which chrome save passwords to gmail and all synced accounts and only save password in their server online because if these are saved in computers any dummy hacker can crack chrome and get password from it. so please save it to your server and add security questions to get saved passwords. What went wrong? what i told above is everything that is wrong in google password saving feature. Did this work before? Yes Chrome version: 71.0.3578.80 Channel: n/a OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2) Flash Version:

Thanks for filing the issue... As per comment #0, it seems to be a feature request. Hence, marking it as untriaged for further inputs from Dev team. Note: Removing Needs-Bisect label to it. Thanks...!

Thanks for the feature request. We are looking into ways to strengthen the storage of passwords. What you describe has certain disadvantages (sometimes you need a password to log into a wifi - e.g. in malls, hotels, airports) and then the password would not be available if it is not stored locally. I am going to close this bug because it is a bit hard to read. We are looking into this but I cannot promise any timelines. |
