Good day Utopians.
I am writing this article to suggest that logout from all devices should be added on the steemit website.
Behind every successful platform you will find Security and Privacy. Security to prevent hackers from stealing user informations and privacy to let user dictate what is to be shared to other users.
I recently logged out from steemit on Opera mini browser but I noticed that I was still able to browse the steemit website on google chrome and Mozilla browsers on my laptop.
Below is the opera browser showing I have logged out from steemit
Below is the Google chrome and Mozilla firefox browser still up and running
Why the need
There is a need for this button because some users might login on their friend computers, or public computers and forgot to logout. This means the friend can access their account and perform numerous basic tasks on the platform
Advantages
- Addition of the logout from all devices button on steemit will no doubt add more security to the site. * Users will be at ease that they can forget to logout from a public computer, knowing they can surely logout from the computer when they get home.
Below is a picture of what I am proposing
I believe this will go a long way in improving the site security and privacy if approved and implemented
