not to worry, forced obsolescence will take care of that for you.

without a master password, firefox just uses a simple scheme it can reverse. if you use a master password, though, then that password is needed.

chromium browsers now use windows credentials, if you have no password on a local windows account, then none is needed to extract the passwords from the browser. .

the thing must phone home to check license status, and they were able to match your systems to the same entity via ip or network or something. but with a minimum buy of 100, i'd tell 'em to fuck off if the total seats using the pack was less than that, regardless of commercial/personal use status.

this is a very sensible alternative to actually going all-in on self-hosting mail, which is a total pain in the ass.

they are claiming that you have to be signed into chrome, the browser, in order to open an incognito window.

yea, it sounds a little crazy. i don't use chrome, so i can't confirm that's the case. i haven't run into any articles claiming this either, just this post and one other elsewhere awhile back that does.

that ship sailed about two decades ago.
