    The security: Since I have to retype the password every 5 minutes it is now recorded on every security camera system in a 20 kilometer radius.

    I can remember long random passwords, but I am still too paranoid about them being recorded. I think I even saw something about predicting passwords based on delay and sound of key presses from recorded audio.
    Well, when do you see the content of my private key? Never. Hopefully never, anyway. Same for cookies.

      Ideally you’d be able to use a password manager to autofill your passwords, but if you’re on company hardware, they may not allow you to install the password manager. May be able to get IT to make an exception since it should only boost your security.

      If you have to use shared hardware, then that sucks, I’m in the same boat.
