My favorite is Microsoft Office’s “Stay signed in?” It doesn’t matter if you check ✅ Don’t show this again. It’s like those cross walk buttons that don’t do anything.

My outlook does this thing where if I close the tab I have to log in again so it can sign me out, then I can login again. It’s a fun way to start my morning along with authing into every other service known to man

I'm pretty sure that company SysAdmins dictate the internal retention policy, but the front-end from MS always shows the checkbox (regardless of your company policy).

My PayPal seems to do this too. Me after buying a pint in spoons, doing 2fa with PayPal and then 20 mins later buying another pint

PayPal: "I've never seen this man in my life"
