Extension summary

Forces Google authentication by preventing check boxes for 'convenience' on sign-in pages. Disables 'always' logged in, and 'Don't ask for codes again on this computer' (if two-factor is enabled), which are irritatingly always checked by default. This ensures you're always forced to authenticate when necessary, and never allows you to bypass two-factor authentication.

This extension does NOT obtain any personal information at all from your accounts page, and ONLY disables the check boxes as described above. View the source if you're concerned.

It is advised to clear your cache first after initial install by using Ctrl + Shift + Delete, and choosing "Cookies and other site and plug-in data". Then log in as normal.


v1.2.3
