Safari update selectively deleted stored passwords
posted ago by MikeBobamasForeskin +14 / -0

I performed the latest Mac os update: BigSur which was an extensive update with a revamped browser (Safari). My logon credentials for TD.win were cleared from the cache. No other website I visit was affected. Seems sketchy to me.

Apple brand software wiping patriot leaning info? Nah... sounds legit. It was just removing those pesky security vulnerabilities. The technocrats know what's best for us.

I can’t seem to sign in even with a password on Duck duck go. It says link can’t be found. Saved it in my google bookmarks and it seems to work when I sign in. For now at least.

TD.win recently changed to single sign-on requiring every account to reauth. Are you sure you didn't get hit by that?

That's possible.
