Good day.
The other day, Google Crome suddenly quit its job, and after reloading, it independently logged into an account I didn’t know. downloading other people's bookmarks, extensions, and most importantly, saved passwords that I don't know. With these passwords, I managed to enter VK, LJ, then I stopped the experiments.
How could this happen? I take it that letting Chrome save the password is downright stupid and insecure?

Most likely, someone logged in under your browser. I've seen this happen at work with an employee.

Letting Chrome sync with its servers is downright stupid and unsafe!
This applies to any software that has such a function built into it.
Who disagrees - is this example not enough for you?
