Alpha password (I'm a tester, not asking for it...)

Could I log on to the 2.0 alpha on a company iPad?  They may know the password after that, but I don't believe they'd have any use for it.  :3

Well, only people whose accounts have been approved can log in to accounts on 2.0, so probably it would be okay. Just don't have it remember the password.

Just to be sure, you could delete all browser data after using it.

Keystrokes?  Tracking key presses?

...Meaning that even if someone hypothetically sends the company's iPad a keylogger to retrieve the 2.0 password (which is extremely unlikely. Scratchers don't go this far and iOS's closed-ness is why you never hear of malicious apps on it  tongue  ), it's of no use to them.

i think he means the company that regulates the iPad might have keystroke tracking implemented on it

I'm pretty sure they have no use for it anyways
(and remember if they had keylogging they could steal your scratch account and access 2.0. not that they would want to.)

And anything else entered on it.  Everyone enters their personal info on the internet, but with all these hackers nowadays, I don't feel comfortable.

Just delete history. Or cookies or whatever, yeah.

You could use it using flash browser (Puffin) But don't let it remember the password or the Ipad could be hacked and the password gets stolen

Re: Alpha password (I'm a tester, not asking for it...)

The only threat you have is a keylogger (which I find very unlikely).
Even when you access the alpha using the password, your "ability to access the site" gets stored in your cookies rather than the password needed to get that ability.

I don't think that made sense. Basically, the code isn't kept in the browser.
