Under the Tech Tip column in the New York Times, J.J. Biersdorfer answered the question ” Google Chrome keeps offering to save my passwords. Is it safe?

He answered:

[su_quote cite=”The New York Times”]Allowing the Chrome browser to save your login and password information for website accounts is safer now than it used to be with the Smart Lock security feature that Google introduced last year for its Chrome software. Like a standard password manager program, Smart Lock saves and syncs passwords across the computers and mobile devices you use with your Google account. You can see the stored list in the Chrome settings or by logging onto your account and visiting passwords.google.com; you may also need to supply your computer’s main user password if you use it to log into the machine[/su_quote].
