Get iOS 7 to remember passwords even for sites that don't want it to
Authored by: agentx on Oct 17, '13 03:27:18AM

Not having a passcode on an iOS is just plain lazy and stupid.

Data protection is available for devices that offer hardware encryption, including iPhone 3GS and later, all iPad models, and iPod touch (3rd generation and later). Data protection enhances the built-in hardware encryption by protecting the hardware encryption keys with your passcode. This provides an additional layer of protection for your email messages attachments, and third-party applications.

Enable data protection by configuring a passcode for your device:

Tap Settings > General > Passcode.
Follow the prompts to create a passcode.
After the passcode is set, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and verify that "Data protection is enabled" is visible.

And a nice day to you too! :|

You're free to worry about your own data's security and privacy at your own levels, but don't presume that everyone else feels the same way; we all have unique sets of values.

Of course, as someone who has dealt with way too many angry customers, in my experience, this value is usually "ignore security because it's inconvenient, then go absolutely nuts when someone gets into your accounts and steals your stuff, blame everyone but yourself."

One can be right and rude at the same time.

Calling others who disagree with you lazy and stupid is not necessarily lazy but it certainly is stupid—boorish, too.
