    or just don’t use the same login information for everyone for a platform that way it doesn’t need to be publicly posted.

      They probably wanted to save on licensing costs.

        it’s always licensing costs.

        don’t know how this is legal yet pirating software is illegal.

          Maybe if licensing costs weren’t ridiculous I wouldn’t mind.

          $15/m/user is ridiculous. Charge me like $100 a year for the license and then like $1/m/user on top. It literally doesn’t matter much how many users there are for many programs, no extra resources for the company. And if it does use resources it’s usually not $15/m worth.

        The real problem is there’s not really a better solution that works well for private accounts owned by individuals who only have a single device.

        They say that authentication is using either something you know, something you have or something you are, but in the real world it ends up being something you’ve forgotten, something you’ve lost and something that you were at one time but are no longer
