Google Passwords Disappear

It must be bug month… Google Password Glitch Leaves Millions in the Dark
A significant bug in Google Chrome has resulted in the disappearance of saved passwords for millions of Windows users. The issue, which lasted nearly 18 hours, left users unable to access their stored credentials.

According to Google, a "change in product behaviour without proper feature guard" caused the problem, affecting an estimated 15 million users. While the issue has since been resolved, it highlights the potential risks of relying solely on browser-based password managers.

The incident has sparked renewed concerns about the security of storing sensitive information within a single platform. Many experts recommend using dedicated password managers for added protection.

As Google continues to investigate the root cause of the issue, users are advised to exercise caution and consider alternative password management solutions.
