Comment on This is why we have two-factor authentication.

Interesting. I’ve actually never heard of them automatically logging out. That’s partly why I am hesitant to log in in the first place.

Most of the TVs that have apps like these in hotels specifically state on the login page that upon check out their system will automatically wipe your logins. At least in the several that I’ve used that have specific tight end apps like these. There are of course those cheap hotels that just have the Smart TVs in the rooms that you’re free to log in as you wish as long as you remember to log out. Usually in those cases I won’t log in at all or I may choose to log into like say Netflix if my kids are there and then are just remembered to log out. Of course I stay in a lot of hotels during the year as well. Think this year I’m already something like 20 or 25 nights in a hotel.
