zzz999··on Google asks me daily for my location to improve connectivity even if I say no
Login and password should always be on the same page and require only one <TAB>... How hard is that

My bank fucked that up too, long ago... I even complained about it... I think software engineers fuck stuff up on purpose for job security and/or for the sake of staying busy. Yet I can't find a job because I dont have an IT degree

Ideally, you would just require an extremly complex password and no user ID though... Something like UUIDs
