Have you noticed any changes in the security settings for messages sent through Mail.ru mailboxes?

Recently, Mail.ru has drastically reduced its ability to manage the security settings of its mailboxes. In particular, I have two of the 4 parameters left. Have been removed (without the possibility of recovery) - "login from only one IP address" and "ban on parallel sessions".
Question 1) Does everyone notice such changes? 2) What would it mean and how does it fit in with the highest degree of concern for the security and anonymity of email messages transmitted by Mail.ru advertised by Mail.ru?
Thanks in advance

Apparently it turned out to be the most rabble-dangerous features.
Like, the user is wandering around the box, and then the balancer drives him through another address of another provider ...
Well, or there are torusers, users of Internet accelerators, etc. ….

Question 1) Does everyone notice such changes?

There is such a thing. And in a regular box, and in the mail on the domain. And even in the help they removed the mention of these settings https://help.mail.ru/mail-help/settings/security

Off-topic, but I think the readers of this question will be interested:
Google on Gmail disabled secret questions for recovering forgotten passwords some time ago, deciding that they were "not secure enough" - many of the answers could be found on social. engineering.
But if everything is fine with you in this regard and you like it, then do not try to change or delete your security question! Removing it will be easy, but adding it again is no way.
The main ambush is that no warnings about this "security feature" are displayed.

apparently, yes
, in general, yes, the entrance has become much safer and it has become much more difficult to register a mail rushechka, as well as to steal it, in terms of security, they made it 100 points, in terms of convenience for registering and selling, they made sadness.

The problem is that now all free mailers want to get at least a carcass, at least a scarecrow - but to get a phone number! I tried literally yesterday to register a box on the NGS (it was necessary there) - so what the hell happened! You specify a deliberately missing address, a normal password, go through the captcha, press the "register" button - and voila, you are back on the data entry page!
