I find it absurd, that after I login, or buy something, they send me an email saying:

--

Since we recognize this device, you’ll continue to stay logged in, so you can skip typing your password during certain activities such as check out.

--

What?!

And there is no opt out, except for you to set a cookie saying you don't want that.

Hello?! How will I have a cookie for that at $random.place?

They literally care nothing about security.



I have the exact opposite experience. I always click on the "Trust this browser" button, but have to 2FA auth again after 2 minute.

Another annoying thing: switching back to English language every time (my OS and browser is English, they are using geoip instead)


Once you have market dominance, I guess you just need to barely get the job done, to stay in vogue.
